Given that it was Kenny Omega's first ever season as a pro hockey player, he wasn't really sure what to expect in terms of how well he would perform. Obviously, he wanted to do well in order to show he could definitely be successful and contribute to his team, but he also knew there would be a bit of a learning curve getting back into the sport after not having played it in a long while. He also had to get adjusted to a new position, as when he was younger he normally played goalie, but now he was playing on the wings. It also didn't help that while Detroit are a team he is proud to be playing for and all his teammates are fantastic people, they weren't in their best form last season, and it took them a while to even get their first win. All in all, when you look at his stats, he did pretty well under the circumstances. 11 goals and 19 assists for a total of 30 points from 66 games is more than he thought he would be able to accomplish. Sure, the +/- wasn't fantastic, but Kenny believes with the improvements that Detroit are looking to make for this upcoming season, that won't be the case with him anymore. Overall, it was a season that came with a lot of struggle, but also one he won't forget anytime soon, because he was able to contribute to his team playing a game that he loves.
