I believe our team in Carolina is going to be a decent one. We have a pretty young team, with only 6 players currently over 300 TPE. That being said, I think the team had a fantastic draft and brought in a lot of activity, so I definitely expect us to only continue getting better. I haven’t followed the SMJHL in a while, but looking a little at the preseason, I do believe it was pretty representative of what I would expect this season, which is having us sitting somewhere in the middle of the pack of the league.
When it comes to the important players on the team, I think it’s obvious that it has to be Aleksi Kettu, Pass Forfeit and BASE PACK. These three are our best players, and they also just so happen to play different positions. Therefore, we know we have a solid foundation in goal, on the blueline and up front on offense. We will lean on them to win games, but I am going to be more than happy to jump in and help our team produce when needed.
