Written Task: Players sometimes need that extra push to reach their potential. What does your player excel at unlocking in their teammates?

It's all about finding that extra gear, that next level, Everyone who plays in the SHL is a good player so to standout you have to tap into that extra level that will set you apart. Since I'm a rookie not much is expected of me but I do my best to be a positive influence on the ice. I think I do a decent job staying in good positions defensively allowing my teammates to take more chances and making big time plays in the neutral and defensive zone. Maybe it's because I'm a rookie and other teams will do this too but my teammates are pretty protective of me. If someone takes a run at me then they mess with the entire team. Also it feels like my teammates have to play harder while I'm on the ice maybe it's because they don't trust my abilities but I think that my teammates play harder around me. I'm not sure if that's a positive thing or not but I'll take it and I can't wait to show everyone that I can step up to the next level.
