An interview with Aleister Cain, starting goalie for the St. Louis Scarecrows:

1. What is your favorite part about being a Scarecrow?
My favorite part of being a crow is how tight knit we are. I know you might hear that from every team, but I do truly believe that the Crows are a special bunch and it's fun to be a part of an active locker room where everyone is happy to see each other succeed.

2. How did your championship run last year help prepare you for your future in the SHL?
After making it so close to the cup before, it was a relief to get the sweep and win the cup. It happened pretty quickly and felt a little empty, but we were all happy to finally get it and add winning to our long resume. I believe Edmonton [his SHL team] is due for a cup very soon, so to be a part of that team would be amazing as well.

3. With the signing of Lee Marshall at the end of the pre-season, we've formed a prodigal three-headed goalie monster. How does this affect the team and the development of the team's goalies?
The third goalie signing is just Joe [GM of the Scarecrows] making sure if he loses me sooner than expected, he still has enough goalies in the pipeline. I know he has a plan for every situation and my SHL GMs haven't been open about when I'm going to be called up so I don't see any goalie controversy out of this. Though I have been the third goalie and it's rough, I trust that Joe will find playing time for everyone.
