Well, I can certainly say that my first season in the J was nothing short of magical. I was a bright eyed rookie for the first time and soaking up/learning everything about the SHL was so wondrous. My teammates in Anaheim were all so informative and patient as there's a bit of a learning curve when first joining the league. I was just happy to take part and help the team out by updating and training as much as I could. Basically TPE whoring, as can be said for many rookies. I wasn’t exactly a standout performer as I tried a skating/pass first build which was just…not good. But the team that year was phenomenal. St. Louis was the big bad back to back champions and we were down 3-2 to them in the conference finals. We came back to beat them and then eventually become the champions in the next series in seven games too. I’ll never forget that first season.
