This upcoming season is going to be a crucial one for Alex Winters. Coming off an MVP nominated season and a career high 47 points in 50 games, there are even more expectations for him than there were going into last season. This may be his last year in the SMJHL and with a third GM and Coach in three seasons, Winters is hoping to succeed despite the situation in flux around him. During practice, he has been doing rushes with last year's linemates and good friends, Tony Pepperoni and Philipp Winter, on what his teammates have dubbed "The Cold Pizza" line. The three of them combined for 114 points last season as one of the top lines in all of the SMJHL last year. They're hoping to build on that success again this year as they look to win the 4 Star Cup. Alex is looking forward to taking an increased leadership role with an abundance of new rookies on the team, and hopefully he can help build a solid foundation for the future of his beloved Raptors. Let's go Raptors! #DinoThunder
