During the season I live in the same place as the offseason, my home in Newfoundland. After being drafted I decided to fully commit and moved the to island of funny talking Canadians. Got screeched in and am now fully a part of the community. It's not a big place, but its pretty cheap out here so I could afford it on my pittance of a J salary. It is nice being around the rink during the season. Short commute, friendly neighbours, nice local bar. The problem can be after I have a bad game, the locals give can give me a hard time about it. I am ok with that because even in the freezing snow and ice they are always willing to help me out. The smell of the ocean always being around is great as well, and you can't beat some of the hikes around and the huge tides that come in. I feel I will live here until at least I am called up to the SHL, and depending how that goes might move closer my new home arena, as that is how I like it.
