1) VW: Breakfast (3 TPE)

4) It's time for the action adventure sci-fi extravaganza "Zebulon"! It follows me from my early days skating on ponds in rural New England, battling evil in youth hockey tournaments, being carted to the other side of the continent and in another country to win a Cup before swinging all the way back east to the American coastline to work alongside the greatest heroes the world has ever seen. There will be babes, hunks, insane special effects, a shark with a frickin' laser beam on its head and a group of villains so heinous and vile (Hamilton) the movie might have to be rated R. I will of course be the protagonist, striking down evil left and right with my shoulders and hips while stealing pucks before it even registers in their brains. But like the Avengers and Justice League, I play on a team and together we will vanquish this foe for the glory of Arstotzka! Or Baltimore. (158 words, 3 TPE) 

12) Milestones (3 TPE)

13) I have always wondered if the league needs a salary cap in the form of limiting TPE totals for a team so they cannot have 10 2000+ players on their team. Of course, the bad side of this is that it punishes hard working GMs who have spent years building teams up; this isn't a real league where players are good immediately. So what if you weighted TPE amounts? For example, when a player hits a certain TPE level the amount stays static for 4 or 5 seasons (a player's "peak" 20s) as counted towards the cap but every year after that it goes up 10% or something? I don't know, maybe some variation of this, I have had a few. (121 words, 2 TPE)

14) The easy answer here for the next team to make the SHL finals is my own team, the Baltimore Platoon. They have steadily climbed up the ladder the last five seasons to become one of the top teams in the league.  They were the only team this playoffs to take Hamilton to six games. They have a solid core of players who are hitting their peak years along with excellent management who are motivated to take the team to the next level. I would be very surprised to not see us in the finals in the next few years, and hopefully winning it as well. (105 words, 2 TPE)

19) I get to make my own pill? Ok, I am going to go with my favorite color and introduce the CLEAR pill!  What does this amazing pill do? Well it makes the puck invisible to anyone who hasn't taken the pill. Passes will be impossible to block since defending players will have no idea whom is passing to whom. Imagine the chaos when every player lines up to take a shot and the goalie has no idea which of them has the puck! Of course, the big drawback is that the fans won't be able to see the puck. The advantage there though is that maybe they won't yell "SHOOOOOOOOOOOOT" anymore. (111 words, 2 TPE)

21) I have enjoyed PTs overall but there were definitely times were I thought "Ugh, I just don't want to do this one," and it felt like a chore to get through.  However I recognize it is a tough job to come up with ideas every single week that appeal to a finicky group and respect the job that you do. More importantly, giving us two options each week has really improved the whole thing. I have generally found one topic to write about enjoyable every week out of the pair given. So keep up the good work, I think you are doing a great job! (105 words, 2 TPE)
