Code: 6. Written, up to 4 TPE - Grab Bag: Pick up to 4 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words. a. Kind of tough because FHM feels like it's more rewarding to building a solid team and STHS felt like it had a much larger luck factor. Honest a cup is a cup to me, attempting to distinguish them by era and/or propping one era up over the other is just a sign of a weird superiority complex and massive insecurity. b. Almost certainly. Baltimore and Edmonton basically got free passes into the final four, nothing against them because Baltimore at least is a pretty solid team and they have a decent shot at becoming one of those 4-5 teams that can actually make the finals. But the current state of the league is what it is. Let's see what next year brings. c. I feel like New York City is the obvious choice here. Even with a Manhattan team I feel like there is enough market their to go around and then some. Plus Manhattan being at the bottom of the standings for a decade I feel is enough to warrant something new for NYC residents to cheer for. I guess you could do New Jersey to avoid doubling up. d. Probably Ryan Shepard. 82 points in one season, 93 points in the next, Shepard consistently performs with two back to back top 10 point finishes. But Chicago, even though they are one of the handful of teams that could make the finals, hasn't for a little bit even with the heavy hitters they have. Code: 11a. Written, 2 TPE - The Procrastinator Special! (100 words min.) I think with these two teams it wasn't a dead giveaway that one team had an advantage over the other. Ham did sweep Tex last season, but obviously this season was a little different and Texas made it close enough to actually squeak out a 7 game series win for the title. All the jokes aside about parity and how we're seeing the same teams every year in the finals, it is nice that at least this time around the finals were at least a close battle as the amount of 4-1 finals we've had over the past 10 seasons is kind of insane when you look at it.

Code: 13. Written, 3 TPE, Parody (150 words min.) Code: 15. Written, 2 TPE, The yearly IIHF task (100 words min.) Update: Well I checked the standings and sure enough, USA has dominated the initial round of games, losing only 1 so far with 9 wins. Lets see if that carries into the elimination round. |
