TASK ONE: There are two options for this task.

If you are a player in the Challenge/Four Star Cup: How is your player feeling for the Finals? Are they nervous or excited? Are they ready? Write at least 150 words about the few days before the beginning of the Finals for your player and how they prepared for the series.

If not: How has your player kicked off their offseason? Are they traveling? Meeting up with friends and partying? Following the games? Write at least 150 words about the beginning of your player’s offseason. Must include at least one other player.


We won the President Trophy this season so we were expected to be the best team in the league but we failed to win a playoffs series again but as a top seed. The offense is still not great but if I can help the team defensively, I'm sure we don't have to worry about scoring as long we don't let the opponent outscore us. I'm also working on my skating and my endurance. I need to play on both sides of the ice so I'll need a lot of energy to perform well. I am also working on my strength. In the playoffs, the players are way more physical which can be very annoying to me. I'm not the strongest player the opponent will take advantage of me not able to do much. I hope I will be ready for next season. I think we have the team to win the CHallenge Cup so there shouldn't be any excuse for another defeat.


TASK TWO: Who is your choice for the unsung hero of the S39 playoffs up to this point? Must be at least 150 words and include at least two statistics in support.


Timo Haas is the unsung hero so far in the S39 SHL Playoffs. The Los Angeles Panthers goaltender has won 7 of the 8 games he played so far. He has not a game against the number seed in the west, the Calgary Dragons. He has been the most dominant player in the series against the Winnipeg Jets who are the favorite to win the Challenge Cup. Currently, Timo Haas has the best stats in the postseason as a goalie. He has the best GAA stat in the playoffs at a 1.89 in which he's leading with a big margin than the rest and his save percentage is at .941 which is also the best in the playoffs. He has only allowed 16 goals in the postseason so far and has one shutout as well. We all agree that the Panthers would be the least favorable to make to the Challenge Cup series but thanks to Timo Haas, they are proving that they are a contender


TASK THREE: Create a championship graphic featuring the matchup of the Finals. Must include both team names, both team logos, a representation of S39, and one additional recognition of each team (team colors, a render, etc.)






TASK FOUR: Unscramble the names of these four players who will be competing in the Challenge Cup Finals. Send the answers to me by forum PM. Please make the subject of the message “CW Word Scramble” or something along those lines. [Grading: 1 TPE for participation, 0.5 TPE for each correct answer]
