Draft Day Jitters

[Seabass 593]

Well it's the morning before the draft. Excitement is in the air as fans wait for the S78 VHL Draft to begin later on today at 8PM. Also for some of the players available in the draft won't even be able to attend in person as they're out playing the this year's World Juniors Tournament. Today we're at the juniors and we're here with The Seabasstard to have a little chat about this year's draft. 

 

Hello Seabasstard, how are you doing today?

 

Not too bad, it's sunny here this morning the sun is shining so I'll take it as a good sign for the things to come later tonight. 

 

Speaking about the draft how do you feel are you nervous?

 

I got the butterflies a little bit there. There's gonna be so much media members there that will want to talk to me by phone during and after the draft and I'm a little nervous to do this all over the phone as I'm more of a face to face interaction kind of guy. 

 

Where do you think you'll end going in the draft?

 

Well it's difficult to say really, I don't really like calling out what team I think I'll be playing on and jinx it. I do think there's a fairly good chance that I might make the top 3 for the draft year and I would be pumped about that if it happened. I would be even more ecstatic if I would get selected 1st. 

 

Team Canada has lost it's opening 3 games, what are your thoughts about that?

 

Well it's been frustrating I won't lie. I don't like losing but I also haven't gotten to play much at my natural position so I'm out of my comfort zone as I've always been a centerman. It also just eliminates the one thing that I'm really good at from my game which is faceoffs as I'm not taking any for Team Canada. I'm still having fun here though but it would just be a lot more fun if we would just win a few games.

 

That's all the time we have Seabasstard thanks you for taking the time to speak with me.

 

No problem, see ya
