My biggest goal for my rookie season in the SMJHL is to gain a better understanding of how the game works and to put myself in a position where I can reach the TPE cap in my second year, so that I can play a bigger role for my team next season.

On the ice, I pride my player on being a solid defensive player first, that can also contribute some offense at times. With that in mind, I'm not really concerned about my point totals, but I'd like to be able to finish the season with a positive +/- rating. I'm still a few seasons away from being an impact player, but I'd like if I didn't make my team worse when I am on the ice.

In order to do that, I think my build is already fairly strong in terms of the mental aspects of the game, but I will need to place more focus on some of the physical aspects of my build, especially improving skating in order to be a more effective player.
