Calcutta Roster
Manager: Luaf Rochest

Scoring Line 1
LW - Bill Clemens
Age - 1287
Height - 5'10"
Weight - 189 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - wrister
Misc - Bill prefers to dish off to his line mates than take the shot himself, and is the fastest person on the squad.

C - Michael Walker (C)
Age - 1082
Height - 6'3"
Weight - 194 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - Is the clutch playmaker on the squad, serving on the first power play and penalty kill, as well as being the second shooter when it comes to a shootout.

RW - Martin Fressis
Age - 979
Height - 5'10"
Weight - 198 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - wrister
Misc - A goal scorer born and raised, lead the EHL in goals the last two seasons. Serves on the 1st power play and is the first shooter in shootouts.

Scoring Line 2
LW- Niko Defriance
Age - 873
Height - 5'10"
Weight - 194 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - wrister
Misc - This winger is defensive minded, always dropping to the ice to block opposing shots and doing all the little things that frustrate opposing forwards. He is deceptively fast, and is on the second power play and first penalty kill.

C- Joe Tatum
Age - 1033
Height - 6'4"
Weight - 210 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - The muscle of the squad, willing to do it all for the squad, and gets alot of "dirty" goals off a rebounds and tip ins. Centers the second power play line.

RW- Sergei Osefrus
Age - 1050
Height - 6'2"
Weight - 202 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - The other pure goal scorer on the squad, second only in skill to Martin when it comes to finding ways to break keepers down. Unlike Martin though, Sergei also has an eye for setting up his teammates, that has allowed him to lead the EHL in points the last three seasons, even when he is not getting the most goals. Plays on the second power play, second penalty kill, and is the third shooter in shootouts.

Checking Line 1
LW- Jere Kapenen
Age - 772
Height - 5'9"
Weight - 176 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - backhand
Misc - A good balance of defence and offence mixed in this small forward who plays twice as big as he is. Defences hate it when he charges at them with his excellent dekeing skills.

C- Marcus Orealus
Age - 854
Height - 5'11"
Weight - 206
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - The most physical and aggressive elf on the squad, who has lead the league in penalty minutes and five minute majors the last two seasons. However, he is the best face off man the squad has.

RW- Daniel Almonte
Age - 761
Height - 5'10"
Weight - 186 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - Just a pure physical checker that gets in and fights in the corners and in front of the net.

Checking Line 2
LW- Will Marcus
Age - 827
Height - 6'0"
Weight - 221
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - wrist
Misc - A body builder in his off time, this lad is a mammoth of an elf, who will take on any body, and leave them battered and bruised after every match despite the outcome.

C- Ricky Donomian
Age - 952
Height - 6'2'
Weight - 197
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - wrist
Misc - A late bloomer in talent, who normally would center a second or third line if not for how stacked the squad is at that position. Uses his frame to the best of his abilities, while throwing in some great assists now and then.

RW- Jason Buertus
Age - 943
Height - 6'5"
Weight - 245 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot - slaps
Misc - A powerful shot that registers as the hardest show on the squad.

Defense Pair 1
LD- Omar Titenburg
Age - 770
Height - 6'1"
Weight - 187
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - The younger cousin of former national teamer Dwier Titenburg. While not the scoring threat of Dwier, he has his cousins talent and then some when it comes to shutting down forwards.

RD- Martin Koula (A)
Age - 1072
Height - 5'11"
Weight - 179
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - wrist
Misc - A prolific scoring threat from the blue line, his skills and expirence have the crafty d-man being the first assistant.

Defense Pair 2
LD- Talil Reton
Age - 880
Height - 6'2"
Weight - 196 lbs
Shoots - right
Prefered Shot -slap
Misc - He is as solid as any other blue liner, but lacks the expierence Omar and Martin have in the EHL.

RD- Narko Lilaim (A)
Age - 1172
Height - 6'2"
Weight - 174 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - wrist
Misc - Has a wicked wrister that enables this otherwise average defencemen to take the other assistant spot, and squeak on from the third pair to the second.

Defense Pair 3
LD- Yomo Kamotomi
Age - 953
Height - 5'10"
Weight - 163 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - wrist
Misc - This agile defender has all the makings of a great player, which were put on display last season as he won the Hardt award (best defenceman).

RD- Damien Millar
Age - 994
Height - 5'11"
Weight - 200 lbs
Shoots - left
Prefered Shot - slap
Misc - A decent defender who does his job quietly.

Starting Goaltender
Marty Wardell
Age - 1105
Height - 6'2"
Weight - 215 lbs
Style - butterfly

THE ARCHREGIMANCY BRINGS YOU

THE 5th WORLD CUP OF HOCKEY SQUAD

As this isn't football, it may be worth reiterating that the Archregimancy is a nation of Eastern Orthodox Christian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church)monks, loosely based on Mount Athos (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Athos) (though on a much larger and much more ethnically diverse scale). While the Archregimancy has a long-established football/soccer tradition, this is their first entry into an Ice Hockey tournament.

It has been the recent practice of international Archregimancy squads to promote monastic humility by fielding an entirely anonymous team.

The same anonymous system will be used in this Hockey tournament, though it's common knowledge that all members of the team hail from the three primary Slavic and Arctic sporting monasteries: Solovetsky, Troitse-Sergiyeva and Borisoglebsky.

They have a lot of frozen ponds to practice on up there.


Team uniform:
The recent emphasis on liturgical robes, as used in international football, continues. They may be bulky, but at least they're warm.

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a319/vakraas/vestments.jpg


The team is always accompanied to games by the Holy Icon of the Mother of God, Bringer of Victory, which shall be paraded on the ice before every Archregimancy match. The Holy Icon looks like:

If you RP before me you may:
CHOOSE MY GOALSCORERS: Yes, though sort of irrelevant given their anonymity
GODMODE GOALSCORERS: Yes
PENALIZE MY PLAYERS: Yes
GODMODE PENALTIES: Yes
INJURIES TO MY PLAYERS: Yes
GODMODE INJURIES: Yes

And remember...
Monks don't cheat. Please.
No forced religious conversions of players, please.

Otherwise, have fun.



OOC: I realise my team might present a role-playing challenge. Rest assured that once they start playing they'll play just like any other hockey team (though they might be a bit more inclined to pray after scoring), so I have no problem with you treating the team like any other if you don't want to deal with the Orthodox Christian element.[/QUOTE]

Plutoni will be fielding a team of androids, none of which have any hockey experience. Their skating skills are suspect.

Starting goalkeeper: #1
Starting defenders: #2 (assistant captain) and #3
Starting forwards: #4 (captain), #5, and #6.

Substitutes are numbered similarly (#7 is goalie, 8 and 9 are defenders, 10-12 forwards). Pretty much make up what you want.

In general, do what you want.

The scores will be posted in this thread at approximately 11-12 UTC on game days. The first scores will be up in 7-8 hours.

OOC: I am very new to sports RPing, and prolly to ice hockey altogether. (I live in a tropical island, with graceful palm trees.....) I will try to learn much about the game, but I have to admit that I may need help in RPing some of the games. Anybody want to help this poor little tropical islander in the game on ice, is very very appreciated. Thank you, thank you, thank you....... :D

The scorinations for tomorrow and Sunday will be pushed to the weekdays of next week. Something rather urgent has come up and I'll be away.

The national team has returned for another round in the World Cup of Ice Hockey. It's unexpected success in the 4th World Cup of Ice Hockey resulted in a mass resurgence in interest in the sport and as a result the team is back, better funded and more confident than in any other time in the teams history. This included a new regime of year round practicing.

RP Permissions
You can say what you want as long as you keep it sensible and not too outlandish (i.e. no godmodding or anything silly without consulting me first). Any serious injuries and/or deaths again need consulting with me first.

If you RP before me you may:
CHOOSE MY GOALSCORERS: Yes
GODMODE GOALSCORERS: No
PENALISE MY PLAYERS: Yes
GODMODE PENALTIES: No
INJURIES TO MY PLAYERS: Yes (Cuts and bruises acceptable but no deaths please)
GODMODE INJURIES: Partly yes (If it involves killing the player, then it's a no no. See details below)


Additional Notes:

All players shoot/catch right handed only (left handedness is absolutely unheard of in my country and is totally unacceptable by the entire population to use your left hand for almost any purpose).

No player will be designated by the number 4 due to a superstition in that the number 4 sounds similar to the word 'death' in Chinese.

#1 is the captain of the team.

The ones in bold and underlined are the starters.

Godmode injuries. I will accept the following:

-Head butting
-Kicking (including a kick to the groin)
-Punching
-Stomping
-Fish hooking

There are also a things which I won't allow:

-Murder (e.g. suddenly brandishing a gun and shooting the player).
-Deliberately blinding a player (e.g. using hockey sticks to gouge the eyes of a player).
-Any attack which will result in permanent hearing loss of the player.

If you post anything that isn't mentioned on the list, I'll use my discretion. As long as it doesn't involve killing, it should be fine by me.

As also noted in the WC discussion thread, my apologies for recent lack of involvement here, but between emergency trips to the hospital at 4:00am while hooked up to an intravenous drip, paramedics coming to my house to pick me up off the floor after I fainted from pain the next morning, and currently taking a cocktail of four different pain killers and muscle relaxants (which leave me less than lucid half of the time), NS is understandably not a high priority right now.

(OOC to Kelssek, Turkemimbeliminstein is still mathmatically in contention.. just letting ya know ;))

Brutland and Norden and Krasslor came out of the same group and just played against each other in the final group round, should they really be playing each in the first knock out round?

Ideally, no. But it isn't a mistake, if that's what you mean.

UHMmmm.. Do I play Mallatarsland or McPsychoville in the next round? You have both of them playing against me.

UHMmmm.. Do I play Mallatarsland or McPsychoville in the next round? You have both of them playing against me.

I noticed that too.

Apologies. The correct fixtures are Bazalonia vs. McPsychoville and Prux vs. Mallatarsland. The mistake was due to me brainfarting and initally using goal difference as the first tie-breaker, rather than wins, which caused McPsychoville and Mallatarsland to switch places. Here's how the seedings were derived. The sequence is points, wins, goal difference, goals for.
