The Newfoundland Berserkers for one simple reason… Jeff Larsson. Why you might ask, well let me tell you. He was drafted number 28th, one position ahead of myself. It’s an unbearable insult and blemish permanently affixed to my career. We battled in the prospect showcase where I proved my metal but apparently that wasn’t enough for the scouts. Forever in the history books I will be known only as the guy drafted after Jeff Larsson. My name and number forgotten with just a, “That guy, you know? The one who was drafted after Jeff Larsson. What was his name again?” Having to deal with his twitter taunts of being second best to him. But the Knights believed in me and I’ll pay back their belief. With the knights, we will knock off defending champions and rewrite the narrative, Jeff will be forgotten and the S61 SMJHL draft will be remember as the “Why is everyone passing on “Ignaz Pleyel?” draft.
