Player Prompt

Ryosuke Sato watched hockey at a young age after his elementary school teacher introduced his class to the sport. His teacher was a big fan of the Vancouver Whalers and when they were playing in the SMJHL playoffs, he made it so the kids can get rewarded for watching the sport and placing guesses on the winning teams. Sato was just interested in the bonus marks, but once he watched the first game he was hooked. The way the teams threw hits and just played so skillfully, Sato knew he wanted to be like them. However, he noticed there was basically no Japanese players on the ice. This lit a passion for Sato as although he is starting the sport a little late, he dreamed of one day being one of the best Japanese players to play in the SHL. He definitely had great Japanese mentors to look up to on the way, and hoped one day he can make his home country proud.
