Hello, I’m George Williams and welcome to SHL nightly. Tonight we interview a young rookie defensman named Haley Knight. As her first season has come to an end, she looks forward to the SHL draft. G.W: So your first season in the SMJHL is over. How did you enjoy playing in Halifax? H.K: it was a great experience. Not the ending we wanted but there is always next season. G.W: How do you feel about your production this season and how do you see yourself improving? H.K: I’m pretty happy with my rookie season in the SMJHL. While I only had 1 goal I still had 15 assists to help out the team. I am working on my endurance and trying to better my puck handling and maybe my passing. Hoping next season will be better. G.W: The playoffs were very short lived. What are your thoughts on that? H.K: Obviously we were not happy with the result. Personally, i feel like i didn't do much to better my team on the ice and i want to make sure that next season the team can count on me. G.W: There are players who say Halifax is cursed because of how long they have gone without success. How do you feel about playeing for a “Cursed team”? H.K: I can tell you no one on the team believes any curse. I get that it’s been a while since the Raiders have had some success but as for a curse, no. G.W: How then do you attribute so many seasons of “failure” if you will? Is it management? Is it player selection/Development? H.K: for starters, Management is amazing. I’m sure players like Slothface may say otherwise but overall, their awesome. As for player development, Troy Reynolds, Jimmy Slothface, Mike McKosry, Perry Morgan, Matt Kholin, Atlas Rush, Biz Nasty, Myself, the list goes on. Development is not an issue. Sometimes as hard as it is to believe, it may just be luck. Or lack of it. We’ll get it. G.W: it’s funny you spoke of Slothface, Reynolds, Morgan. These are guy that current management did not draft. H.K: You never said draft, you said develop. G.W: Fine, I admit I said develop. What about drafting? Are you as a player happy with how they draft? The players they bring in? H.K: I think so. It’s my first season so I don’t really know. Looking back at their track record it seems fine to me. G.W: Quick change of Pace, Some have said you and GM Dean Atkins have been, what’s the word, “ seeing” each other. Does that have any bearing on favouritism towards you? H.K: Are you for real asking these questions? Are you trying to start trouble with Halifax? Myself? Our Management? G.W: I’m just trying to ask the questions people want to but can’t. Here’s some proof. H.K: We went to a fundraiser together. Is there some getting to know each other, yes. Does that play into what I do on the team? no. I like to think I earn my place. As a matter of fact. I’m Done here. This interview is over. G.W: Haley, Haley we aren’t done yet…….Well. She has left. I guess that’s all for today. This has been SHL nightly.
