The Frist week into the new season and the play of Liam Slate has been okay. Liam Slate has posted 14 pts in 15 games thus far in his first season with the Edmonton Blizzard. Liam Slate should be the top offensive threat for the Blizzard but that remains to be seen. While Slate is almost a point per game, half of his points come on the powerplay. This means that Slate is feasting on the power play thus far. It seems as though the Blizzard are going to have a mediocre season although the team is fairly young so it makes sense. I do not think Liam Slate will be that good this season. He may get closed to a point per game but it remains to be seen. But after a week of play, Slate has been fairly good so far for the Blizzard although not a star player by any means. Slate will have to continue to produce in order for Edmonton have put up more wins. Slate needs to pick up the even strength play in order to be more effective.
