Ti-Guy is half way through his prime years so he has some time left to keep on getting better and better. This offseason he focused on getting stronger on his skates and also did many drills to improve his bodychecks. His defensive awareness is growing year after year and he’s starting to establish himself as a reliable defensive d-man. Unfortunately, his hard work isn't resulting in a bigger role or more ice time for the Toronto North Stars. He's still gonna be on the 3rd d-pair but this time with a new partner in Ben Turska. Even though it is pretty frustrating, Emond tries to stay positive and keep being a good teammate. Working hard always pay better time will come. Ti-Guy will never put up big numbers so his goals are more around secondary stats. If he can get 150+ hits, ~ 50 shot blocks and a +/- above 0, he will be very happy with his season.
