When I first broke into the SHL, I really focused on all my physical traits. They’ve obviously been important, and have been improved. However, within recent seasons I’ve worked on improving my offense. Coach told me I turned the puck over a little too much, so some puck handling drills were going on for a bit. I wanted some more points, so I trained my passing and getting open to become more of a playmaking defender. What happened? I became one of the best defensive defenders on our team. Almost no offense. So I started training some defense, and so comes this season..

I’ve had the best offensive season of my career. Total breakout season. So you know what? I’m not sure at all which attributes I find important. I think it’s all voodoo.

But I guess at this point, I may as well be buying into it. Right? So from now on, I’m going to work towards pushing all my offensive stats to 20. Even that one I’m not allowed to. Maybe fighting, as well.
