Nick Brain felt he had a somewhat disappointing campaign from an offensive standpoint, and with his defense refined and very competent, he decided to further improve his strong wrist shot, in a bid to increase his shooting percentage up above last years sub 10 percent shooting.

Nick also worked out harder in the gym to increase his upper body strength and lung capacity, which would serve as a good general purpose to anyones game. Thanks to his discovery of Shane Banks CrossFit Training, he raised his strength and stamina beyond what he thought he was normally capable of. Their special line of fitness supplements helped too.

Nick also intends to work on his puckhandling once the mid-season on-ice practises start. It can be said that if you have the puck, the other team can't score, so improving Nick's puckhandling meant eating up precious possession time for the Jets and starving the opponent of scoring opportunities.

Overall, Nick has proved his mettle as a Two Way Forward as capable as any other in the league, and is ready to fufill any line role the Jets see fit for the veteran British forward.
