An unexpected surprise is simply the mere existence of Nike Kickz Jr. If we know anything about the track record of the last few players brought along by Kickz Jr's player agent, then we know that there is a pretty good chance that this player was never going to make it through his first season. Yet, despite all of the odds, Kickz Jr remains a mainstay on the Newfoundland roster. Another pretty big and unexpected surprise for Kickz Jr is just how much he has enjoyed the task of playing down the middle for the Berzerkers. Having been pretty committed to becoming a strong playmaking winger, when the team asked Kickz to do something unexpected, he rose to the challenge and worked on his faceoff game. Since then, I would say that he has surprised everyone by turning into one of the SMJHL's dominant two-way centers. A real force on the penalty kill who also isn't afraid to go on the offensive with a star studded cast around him. So, yeah there's been quite a few unexpected surprises in the life of Nike Kickz Jr.
