I came into this league knowing I was going to have to deal with more wins than losses.  Starting out on a Nevada team looking to rebuild my first year. There were lots of new players on the team and we knew goals were gonna be easy… for the other team, and harder for us, or so we thought. We had an amazing goalie who stopped 60-80 shots every game. Even though he still let in 3-5 a game, it helped me play better on the ice. My next season ended up in similar fashion. Starting off on a brand new team in the Regina Elk. I knew I was going to go through another rebuild year, but this time, surprisingly on another team. As one of the veterans on the team, I was hoping to be a role model for those just coming in. Well, before the season started, I ended up being chosen as an Assistant Captain. This made me want to be a role model for everyone, no matter the outcome of any games nor whether we were on or off the ice. Now here I am in my 3rd season, and chosen once again as one of the assistant captains. Even though it’ll be my last year in the J, it still will not deter me from being as good a role model as I can.
