Highlight 1: Getting Drafted 24th overall 

I really had no clue where I was going in the draft. It was an exciting time, as I was pumped to get the season going. I had talked to GM Tig about Detroit, and was excited that they had so many picks in the early rounds. I was hoping that he would use one on me, but as the selections went by, I started to lose hope. I was refreshing the page over and over, until I suddenly got a notification that I had been mentioned. Holding my breath, I checked the draft, and sure enough, I was drafted! Detroit! It has been all up since then.

Highlight 2: First Goal

Cliche, I know, but this was a big deal to me. I had gone 10 games into the season without scoring, and was looking for my first. Playing in the third line pivot role, I was doing my job as a good soldier in the faceoff dot and on the PK, but I really wanted to show I could score. Down 2-3 against the Beserkers, I won the faceoff in the O-zone and ripped a shot on net. Rebound. Shot it again. Missed wide. Guy O'Shea missed wide, and I tapped it in on the backdoor for my first of the year. I will frame that puck and hang it in my trophy case forever.

Highlight 3: GWG against St. Louis

Everyone knows that St. Louis and Detroit don't like each other. Our last game against them of the year, it was a tight game going into the 3rd. Tied 1-1 with 10 minutes to go, I collected the rebound, deked my way past a defender, and shelved my 4th of the season. The team went wild, and we didn't look back, winning the game against our rivals. I was rewarded with the 3rd star of the game for my game winning goal. It always feels good to score, and it feels even better when you do it against a team you don't get along with.
