3. Written, 3 TPE, Song of the Playoffs (150 words min.)

Every season the NHL buys the rights to a song that they edit their playoff promotional materials to. This season we’re doing the same thing for the SHL! Pitch me your “Song of the S67 Playoffs”! Who sings it? Why do you think it would make a good hype song?

My guilty pleasure group that I personally love listening to is Nickelback. And they have one song that I find has really that hockey feel, one that I can imagine myself listening to in warm-up and telling myself "man I can not wait to light someone up tonight" and that song is Burn it to the Ground. It has already been used in the past in various sports video games like NHL 2010 and WWE Smackdown versus Raw in 2011, 2 games that have the same feel that I am going for, really that bad ass feeling that you want to hit people and hurt people and fight. With the playoffs being a tighter time for hockey, where mistakes are crucial and you battle more for the pucks in the corner and more fights occur, I think it is the perfect anthem for the playoffs this season. Also, I think most of the people will hear this song and have a connection to their childhood because it was in video games we grew up playing.

16. Written, 3 TPE, Hockey History (150 words min.)

Tell me about an important moment or person in the history of your home country’s hockey program! This can be a real-life story or SHL related! Your choice! I want to learn some interesting hockey history from around the world!

Well, I live and grew up in Montreal. A town full of hockey history, mainly from the past, where the Canadiens had dominated the league and won many many stanley cups. My friends and I always talk about the hockey history we have here, and how crazy it is to think of the players that came out of my own city. I grew up in the same area that Martin Brodeur and Roberto Luongo grew up. On the surface, you tell yourself wow, that is 2 professional NHL goalies and NHL executives to come out of the same city and neighborhood as myself. But if you look deeper, you realize that 2 of the best goaltenders of all time came out of the same neighborhood, not just 2 journeyman that made a little living. The most all time wins in NHL history with 691 and 4th all time on the list with 489, Martin Brodeur and Roberto Luongo will always be names that hockey fans will know and remember. I personally believe no one will ever pass Martin Brodeur on the all time wins list and I can confidently say that I grew up a couple streets down from where he grew up.

23. Written, 2 TPE, Say Something Nice (100 words min.)

I’m not sure when we did this last, so that probably means it’s a good time to bring back the positivity prompt! Tag some other folks on the site and let them know why you appreciate them! Could be a GM, a friend, a department head, anyone! The goal is to make someone happy.

With my other player going a little inactive towards the end of it, I have come back to join the community because of how awesome it really is. I have been lucky enough to join teams and locker rooms with great personalities and fun people to be around. People like @Ragnar @OrbitingDeath @hotdog @Merica @bluesfan55 just to name a few, have really made my return to the SHL a super enjoyable one and one that I stay active for. People like this will be the reason that Bruno Tooyo will have a successful career, that I do not miss Point Tasks and that I come on here and leave satisfied and having a fun time doing so.
