In spite of our best efforts the Regin Elk fell just short of making the playoffs. We are all obviously pretty upset about missing out on more games but it is no use crying over. With this extra time off I have two goals in mind. The first is to get back home to South Korea for a bit and take a little vacation. My rookie season in Regina was stressful. I pushed myself to my limit and I think I need to get my head back in the right place. Time with friends and family over delicious Korean food should do the trick. My second goal is to jump right back into training once my vacation is done. The WJC is right around the corner and the Young Guns team needs me at my best if we are to improve after our performance last year. Off ice training along with the WJC tournament will serve as a perfect lead in to the SHL draft and my sophomore season with the Elk.
