PBE PT - 3 TPE

Quote:1. Written, 3 TPE (150 words min.)
Reflection on your season - how did your player fare on the ice this season? Did you meet or surpass your individual player goals or did you come up short? Whether you excelled or disappointed - what can you attribute that to? What will you try to do better next season?

Personally, I'm incredibly satisfied with the season I had. Ronlain ended up leading the Tampa Bay Barracuda in points and goals this season. With 18 goals and 11 assists Ronlain was top of the team, just 1 point more than second place Michael Fitted. Yeah, overall it's not the most impressive season a player could have. But I'm pretty happy to finally have somewhat of a "breakout" season in the SHL considering the first two seasons I've had have been kinda disappointing so far. This last season was great, though. Yeah, my plus minus was still a -52 and I still didn't quite break 30 points. But I think that in time I'll end up getting better and better and so will the rest of the team as we start to call up our large prospect pool. I'm excited for both my future and the future of the Tampa Bay Barracuda. We will be champions someday.

It's too late for this go-around of expansion, so hypothetically - should there be SHL franchises in other continents? I saw some interesting European proposals in the PT. Should these - or proposals for any other continent that's not North America -
become a reality in the SHL?

I dont see why we shouldn't have SHL teams on other continents. It's not like it's a real league where we actually have to worry about logistics or anything like that. It's all for fun and if we want to have teams in Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, whatever, I don't see why not. If anything, I think it would be cool to have some of the SHL players from around the world be able to play for a team that's in their home country or even their home city if they want to. This is all just for fun anyway, so I really dont see why not.

What are your predictions for the upcoming IIHF or WJC tournament? What team do you think will win/surprise people/be bad/etc.?

Well, having newly joined the Great Britain IIHF team, I think that we have a good chance at doing well this season. Currently, our top line consists of all 2000 TPE players in Zheng, Slothface, and Brian. We truly do have a strong team, only 3 players total that are under 1000 TPE and the rest are all at least 1100. Other potential contenders in my mind would be the obvious ones in the USA and possibly Canada as well. Also, cant forget Russia as they always have a stock of great players lined up to make an IIHF run. I'm looking mostly for the players on Great Britain's top line to really make an impact for us in this tournament, I think our offense will be unparalleled if they can really get going and build some momentum, knocking in puck after puck and really start racking up the goals against the other teams.

Welp, you waited until the last day to grind out your CW and the CC finals are longggggggg over by now. congrats to [TEAM], woo! Reflecting back on the series, who gets your vote for series MVP? Make the case why this player deserves it over any other.

My series MVP has gotta be Elizabeth Doyle. Posting an incredible .927 SV% over the course of the entire playoffs and only allowing 16 goals in the 7 game series, and then in the last two games only allowing 3, really coming in clutch and bringing the series back in favor of Buffalo. I can't think of another goalie performance that has been more impressive than this one in a long time. I don't think I've seen a goalie really heat up like that in the playoffs in my entire time here in the SHL. Elizabeth Doyle is my finals MVP without a doubt.
