As all the teams around the world in the VHL and other leagues alike get ready to begin the season, Calgary Wranglers sophomore Saku Kotkakoivu is eager to get going. He didn't blow anyone away in his rookie season, but had a respectable 59 points in 72 games, while following that up with 8 points in 13 games in the playoffs. He has been training a lot in the off-season, like many others, and by now he is just ready to start playing some hockey.

 

"I just want to get out there and put my skates on the ice, and face off against the other teams. I don't want to wait anymore. The off-season is my least favourite time of the year with the lack of games. I want to hear the fans roar, and score some goals while having some fun with my teammates out on the ice. Competition is my favourite thing, so training in the off-season at the facilities is something I won't miss. The rise and grind of practice, workouts, and games during the season is going to be great to start up again." - Saku Kotkakoivu
