11. MattyJ’s first season with the Whalers was an amazing one. Ending the season as champions was all we could’ve hoped for. As far as personal play on the ice, MattyJ was solid. The regular season had its ups and downs but overall was disappointing. Not only for MattyJ, who did not put up great point numbers or score many goals, but also for the Whalers who ended in the middle of the pack. However, both MattyJ and the Whalers turned it on in the middle of the playoffs. MattyJ was scoring at will, with NoNo Jo, and never getting any assists. The Whalers couldn’t seem to lose a game and MattyJ couldn’t seem to stop scoring. This postseason was the top moment of MattyJ’s young career. Next season he hopes to take a huge step forward. This will be his last season in the J and hopefully it will be a great one. Not only does he hope to repeat, he wants to score and assist in the regular season. As MattyJ looks to ascend into the ranks of the SHL, this season will be a test as to if he is ready for the big leagues. We can only wait and see.

12. So far in his career, MattyJ has not found success in the WJC. Whether it is not winning it all, or simply not showing up on the stat sheet, it has been far from enjoyable for him. The USA teams are commonly favorites to win, but this has never amounted to anything. This is the year that it changes. Team USA Blue will win it all. Not only will they win it all, they will walk through the competition. Others may try to win, but they will fail miserably. MattyJ hopes to be the leader that his team needs. While coming of a dominant cup run, he knows what it takes to succeed. He also hopes to take the confidence he had in the playoffs to the WJC. Personally, I really have not paid much attention to the WJC. This year I hope to be more active in the discord and get to know some people I haven’t met in the league yet. I am looking forward to it. Don’t mistake this kindness for weakness. Team USA is coming for you, and it’s already over. Hand us the rings already. For this one, we don’t have to wait and see, it’s already finished.
