The Happy Little Elves  were an expansion team in 2008, and as a result, they struggled mightily throughout the entire season.  After winning their inaugural game against the Tuques, they failed to win again until they defeated the Bad Touch in a consolation game.  Additionally, in seventeen regular season games, they only managed to score 21 goals, two fewer than league scoring champion Adriano “Muscles Marinara” Bratta.

As a result of these growing pains, captain Ben Chadwick has overhauled the roster to ensure that the Elves show improvement in their second season.  He has added some talented new free agents and trimmed some of the bulk from last season’s massive lineup.  Of course, according to Chadwick, several players had actually been off the team since last season, but through some glitch in the system were still listed on the roster.  So…he fixed the glitch.

With the new, streamlined Elves team, Chadwick is very optimistic about the upcoming season.  He notes:

The Elves this year will be the team to watch.  Indeed, we would be hard to miss, as our patented Day-Glo uniforms are visible from points beyond the moon.  Last year our motto was, ‘The best team in BTSH (except by the numbers).’  This year we will be the best team in BTSH *including* by the numbers.  So watch out, Rehabs!!

Food They Closely Resemble: Penny Candy.  Also referred to as “pick ‘n’ mix” in Britain, this is really just an umbrella term for a number of unrelated, yet lowly regarded entities.  However, with modern times, they are bonded together more often than they once were, resulting in a collective synergy throughout the group.
Fast Fact: Demetri Adrahtas has competed in several World’s Strongest Man competions over the past few years, and still holds the world record in the fingal fingers (in white).
