Devin Williams coaches asked for him to come to the rink opening day of preseason, ready and willing to make a better showing than he did last year. With his below average point totals but above average defensive capabilities, they wanted him to continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the defensive zone, while also being able to be stronger on the offensive blue line. For Devin, the offseason really seems to have helped that, putting up 3 goals in 2 games ( He had a goal last year but it was waved off after a late offsides ruling by the referees ) Making his offseason start already much more promising looking forward. His teammates have been ragging on him a little bit about finally getting a goal he could count, albeit in preseason, he knows it's only the beginning of a good year in the J. Along with the prospect of being on a powerplay unit and no longer pairing the bottom d corps, Williams is looking forward to a breakout year in which he hopes to put up just as strong defensive numbers, and even better offensive numbers.
