Max is learning

[Steve 1,920]

What a great beginning of a hockey career for Max Torq. He was picked up by Ottawa and was slotted in the third line. For a rookie, that is a dream come true. A very good team with many future super stars. It is a bit intimidating to be on the ice with such talent. Max is a hard worker though and has had the chance to watch how the more skilled players on the team handle themselves. With a good work ethic, I expect Max will progress at a accelerated pace. While still defining his play style, Max should be a big body that makes big hits that in turn, hopefully, leads to an opportunity to score. Playing on defense can be a thankless job at times but it also has a lot of upside. One thing that is satisfying is throwing a big hit and taking the puck away. Other things that are fun is sliding in front of a slap shot and have it hit you in the helmet. All the fun stuff that the forwards don't have to worry about. Max will work hard to make his mark in the league and on a few players. It just takes time and hard work.
