Smirnov Light Next Big Center?
|
![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() We are here to interview Smirnov Light after the draft, he went 34th overall to the falcons. We want to ask him how it was to be drafted to the falcons which especially felt Special to him because of the teammates he will have there, but more over the atmosphere of winning the GM has created. We also want to ask the center who has received comparisons to Evgeni Malkin due to his tremendous size and also because of his great skating playmaking and scoring ability. This kid is truly skilled. But will he keep on improving? Will he show the other teams that they shouldn’t have ever passed up on him, that he could become a big deal. We also wanted to ask him about the long wait especially because he thought he would go in the top 15. Also from our last interview he told us that he plans on improving on both sides of the puck and not being just a goal scorer and assist machine like how he could become easily, he wants to become a premier pure skating big sized two-way Center, and will want to win it all with the Falcons. ![]() Wow, that is a hard question, well I stayed with my parents until the draft begun. It is a very nerve-racking event which I would never ever forget. I was waiting anxiously thinking who and or where I would be drafted. And I couldn’t be happier about being a Falcon ![]() Yes I would say so. I was welcomed into the Falcons organization by the GM’s and our first round pick diglet, who I feel we could create a dynamic juggernaut style offense for the falcons, he will surely get the puck down and now way would I ever hog the puck from him, if he is open, I’m hitting him with a pass ![]() Maybe just a little bit but not too much. I was expecting more of the 12 – 23 part of the draft, But also this is a deep draft of great players which I wish the best of luck for and hope they move on to a successful career (unless you want to win the cup this year and are not a falcon :D) it is always interesting being drafted. ![]() No not really. People had the players all over the place, no one knew where anyone would certainly go, I had no clue tbh, I took a big guess and I got wrong, but without a bit of an ego you can’t play good, like one of my great former coaches said “you look good, you feel good, you play good†he told me that after I looked a bit shell-shocked early on in my career. ![]() Probably top 6 time as a center. I want to be playing with diglet on the PP and see the Magic that could be created with two great pure skaters ![]() Actually they want me to do a lot of task points, they say I have a lot of potential and I believe them, about my role, I would say create plays. I am not a grinder, but I do have the size and strength of one, but most possibly no. I am not too good defensively I can admit it, but I will work hard and do whatever they want me to do. ![]() Oh, Too many to count, all of my parents friends definitely called and every call I really listened to closely and thanked each one for their help along my way up to getting to the falcons organization in Detroit, I have taken some trips there and seen their arena before but never really got great access to the behind the scenes stuff but look forward to it. ![]() Like I said, Power skating ability, I can skate past any defender, and I can use my strength to get passed any defender, and also I can pass the puck to a player on my team. I also feel on a 2 on 1 no matter what there is a goal that will happen, I can shoot and score, and I can pass the puck to my teammate, I can also stick handle past the goalie and skate it straight into the net. Defensively I am a big Body Checker and can clear out the slot of players looking to shoot, I will get them on their backsides within the 2 seconds I see them lining up. ![]() Of course prospects would want to get to the majors right away, I mean which prospect wouldn’t, I would’ve never believed that I am a semi-modest person, I want to improve as much as I can this season so I can dominate in the SHL, if that is what you mean, then you’re incorrect. It is not just all about me improving, it is about developing into the correct player needed in the Majors, and more importantly being that leader who can step up for the falcons and can improve during the season to help us make a push towards and playoff run and win the championship which we can do when we have the players focused and developed by the end of the year. ![]() :ahh!: thank you, and I wish to see you again. Great talking to you again. 1,054 Words 2 Pictures ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() Registered S7, S13, S20, S21 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() Registered S7, S13, S20, S21 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() Registered S7, S13, S20, S21 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() Registered S7, S13, S20, S21 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by Taron47@Jul 9 2012, 10:37 PMi was joking <_< shitty for NJ lol my team sux therre im good on big js league ![]() ![]() Registered S7, S19, S23 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by bballhandcuff@Jul 9 2012, 07:33 PMI know Taron he is a beast and I'm glad we drafted him, going to be a huge steal and a future star in the SHL ![]() SHL GM S13, S18 Challenge Cup Champion
