S52 PT #1 - The Anthology Vol. I

![]() All-Star Committee Posting Freak
In Antigonish, there isn't a whole hell of a lot to do. There's a few bars, lots of university students, and some good spots to play hockey. A way of life growing up in the town, Brogen was in skates shortly after he could walk, and found his winters spent outside playing shinny or on the pad at the local rink. Instilled with a strong work ethic from his blue-collar parents, Brogen was always pushed that if he was going to be doing something, there was no doing it in half measures. He quickly turned his passion for the sport into near obsession, earning himself playing time in AAA before moving up a league to play bantam as an underager before getting into Jr B with the local Bulldogs. Hockey was all Brogen would think about, and while he was a good student, he knew that getting his work done early would lead to more time that he could be on the ice.
While it's very common for a young Canadian to grow up dreaming of playing in the SHL, Brogen committed to it, writing down daily tasks and goals to get himself there. Starting out with shooting pucks, hours of skating, and as he got older morphing into lifting weights to get stronger, faster and better. While naturally a good talent, Brogen put every bit of time and effort he could into trying to realize his dream. He now sits about as far away in North America as he could possibly get, realizing his dream of playing in the big leagues, though not exactly in the climate he was used to. |
