Lynx New Signee Interview

[AJW 2,372]

An interview with VHLM news with Lynx’s new signee, AJ Williams.

 

VHLM: Welcome to the league AJ, how are you?

Williams: Thank you! And I’m good, excited to be here!

VHLM: Glad to hear, first question, what is it like to be signed to a team like the Ottawa Lynx?

Williams: It’s the most amazing feeling, after playing in the OHL for the last two years it’s super exciting to move on to bigger and better things. Ottawa is a great city and I love it here already. Growing up in Ontario makes playing for an Ontario team that much more special.

VHLM: That’s good, Ottawa fans seem thrilled to have you already. What are your future goals with the team?

Williams: My close future goal is to build team morale with the guys, a happy locker room definitely transfers onto the ice. As for further future goals it would be to bring home the Founder’s Cup of course.

VHLM: The last Founder’s Cup in Ottawa was in S71, think it’ll be back soon?

Williams: I’ll do my part and I trust the guys on my team will too, Ottawa should be the city of champions in no time.

VLHM: I love the attitude, last question, what made you sign late with the Lynx and skip out on the VLHM draft?

Williams: My father passed away around the same time of the draft so I decided to pause hockey for a while and spend time with the ones I love. After some thinking I decided I should lace the skates back up since this game was my father’s passion and I know he’s looking down on me wanting me to play again.

VHLM: I’m sorry to hear, I hope you and your family stay safe and healthy and I hope you enjoy your time in VHLM. Thank you for your time.

Williams: I appreciate it, thank you.
