1. What would you like to accomplish in the SHL with your player?
Well Id obviously like to win a lot of titles and get elected to the Hall of Fame. Maybe if I get enough money, be an owner some day too
2. What style of player are you building? Please elaborate beyond the "archetype" SHL starting build (playmaker, sniper, offensive defenseman, etc.).
I'm going for an Andrei Markov type Defenseman. Someone who can pass and score goals but who can also get down and block shots and stand up for their teammate. Of course, if the team needs me to be something else, I am willing to change it up to suit the needs of the team. But Markov is roughly what I am shooting for.
3. What part of the SHL experience do you enjoy the most? Do you enjoy the community and being a part of a locker room? Do you like producing media and talking about the league? Are you fascinated with the sim and keeping up with your stats and your team?
I like hanging out in the locker room and producing media. I love following the stats of my player and my team and I love the sim. I saw recruitment posts for it in Reddit for the last 2 years and always intended to join. I'm glad I followed through in December because I absolutely love it here.
4. Could you see yourself playing for the Winnipeg Jets for an extended period of time?
I could see me being a Jet for life.
5. Would you like to be called up to the SHL fairly quickly, after two or three SMJHL seasons? Or do you want to spend a little more time in juniors?
I'd like to spend at least another season or two to gain TPE and get Colorado over the hump but of course if the team needs me sooner, I am willing to do whatever it takes for the Jets.
6. What makes you different from other players in your draft class?
Good question, I guess its willingness to do media. I like to write and I write a little more often than some in my class with the exception of Nick Brain, my teammate in Colorado and S45 classmate.
7. Are there any players in your draft class or around the league that you would like to play with in the SHL?
Nick Brain, Michael Scarn, Knute Knurtsson, Smeb Brothers
