as Lucyxpher has done an all-stars team lineup I thought it might be nice to do a skills competition lineup and see which players in the all-star game would compete in which events. I'm going to pick 4 skaters ( 2 from each conference) for each event based on stats I think would make them strong in their respective events. During the following events a online poll will be taking place to select 10 players 5 from each team for a breakaway challenge where the winner would be chosen by fan votes.
Fastest Skater: 
In the fastest skater competition we would see these players vying for the title of best wheels.


For the Western Conference:
Houston Bulls - Lucy Leitner
Houston Bulls - Benjamin Abenduct
For the Eastern Conference:
Ottawa Lynx - Ivan Ivanov
Philadelphia Reapers - Enn Jinn


Passing Challenge:
These are the players who would be try to gain the title of apple master.


Western Conference:
Saskatoon Wild - Forum Content
Las Vegas Aces - Stinky
Eastern Conference:
Missisauga Hounds - Wernher von Braun
Philadelphia Reapers - Yermolai Nabokov


Hardest shot competition:
In line to see who has the best howitzer of a slap shot we will see these talented all-stars
Western Conference:
Houston Bulls - Trimiskez Artav
Las Vegas Aces - Ella Aura Ashe
Eastern Conference:
Halifax 21st - Antonia Bucatini
Miami Marauders - Matthew Highmore


Accuracy shooting competition:
Last up for skater competition we will look to find out who is the best sniper in this years All-Star crop.


Western Conference:
San Diego Marlins - Jean-Pierre Devote
 Saskatoon Wild - Annie Oaks
Eastern Conference:
Halifax 21st - Aanarsi Reingaard
Ottawa Lynx - Wayne Shotzky


and for a final event we will have a save streak challenge for the goalies with the remaining players without an event taking the shots for their respective sides. The goalies will have two chances each at setting the highest save streak they can, each tendie will get a chance to try and pickup a win for their team in this event. Going over each event individually we're going to try and predict the winners and explain why we think this.


Fastest Skater:
We firmly believe that the winner of this event will be Lucy Leitner, she really flys out on the ice in a way we haven't seen in some time. We're not even sure if she touches the ice when she's skating or just glides over top of it.
Passing Challenge:
In this one we think the winner will be Wernher von Braun, although they may not have put up the same numbers as stars like Forum Content so far this year we think that's mostly due to the lack of depth on their teams roster.
Hardest shot competition:
In this event we think that Antonia Bucatini is going to come out on top, her strength and solid slapshot is what makes her the favorite to win this event. That being said I wouldn't be surprised if it was a close match between her and Ella Aura Ashe for this one.
Accuracy Shooting event:
In this event we just can't bet against goal scoring leader Jean-Pierre Devote he has been sniping all year and he won't stop here. But again this will be a close finish between him and the offensively gifted Aanarsi Reingard, we could see some incredible times set in this event this year.
Save Streak Challenge:
This one may be the toughest one to predict who will win, but based on how dialed in all year he's been we have to say we believe Jorgen Lovstrom is going to pull this one out. He has looked absolutely amazing all season and is tough to beat one on one.
so if you've been keeping track that's 3 wins for the eastern conference to 2 for the west but you never know how things will turn out. The most important thing is that these All-Stars do their best to put on a great show for their fans.

Review

This media spot was very well formatted. However, in my opinion, as you got down to the end of the media spot, you should've left space between the lines. It had caused me to lose interest since I couldn't see the separation easily like I could when you stated the people who had made it into the all-star competition. Still, though, I enjoyed reading. I liked how you researched these players very thoroughly. Great work!

Review:

 Super awesome article was an interesting read and I like the amount of research you put into picking players. I like that you have a title, it flows smoothly and is also an easy read. Formatting is janky but that could just be me, it is also the only thing I can think for you to improve on! I like how you put who you think would win, it shows me you put effort into writing this rather than slapping something out for TPE. Spelling and grammar are done well. I hope one day we can rerun these events and have real results, It's a great article, keep writing!
