Sebastian Thunder: A life

[Matt thunder 444]

What can be said about Sebastian Thunder? the last name that he has already speaks for himselfs, but what if I wold you that Sebastian is a told different person from his dad?

 

 

Let's start from the mpst important thing, his father, was born in France, while our protagonist, Sebastian, was born in the capital of Latvia, the beautiful city of Riga; because, as many nerds of the VHL might know, Matt Thunder played for a big part of his carrear in Riga.

The second difference that he has from his father is that he grew up in some goods hockey countries and cities, Malmo and Riga, not like his home country France; since he was a young kid he used to watch the trainings and important games of Riga and he also had the chance to speak and learn from some of the most important recent legends of the team, like for exemple Zamboni Driver, Cabe Mcjake, Artair McCloud, Isau DaMoose and Linus Zetterstrom.

It was only logic for him to fall in love with this incredible sport, but he wanted to change from his father, of course he loved to see players crush into each other or just fight for the puck, but what he really loved was an other thing, he loved scoring and doing it in the best way possible, exulting in front of the opposing team and fans, he finally choosed to play as a left wing, as he was a good skater but also a good shooter.

 

Once his father heard the great news, he immediatly sent him to one of the best junior hockey team of Riga, but of course, as you guys can immagine, it was hard for Sebastian, he had a lot of talent and he showed it, but all that his teammates could see was only one thing, his last name, Thunder.

He was on the first line and stealed the place from an other child? well, you already know that it was only thanks to his last name and not by the fact that he could score hat tricks after hat tricks against the best junior  teams of the whole country.

Of course this wave of prejudice did not stop him, it actually did the opposite, he wanted to show to the whole world that he wasn't just a last name, he will be one of the best future palyers of the VHL, so as the day passed, he spent more and more time on the gym, but also on the ice rink; even if he had to change city due to his father beeing traded to malmo, he did not stop his daily work routine, he even started to double it.

Finally all of his hard work payed of as he was finally scouted by a team of the VHLM, the miami marauders, he was so close to achiving one of his first dreams, reaching the VHL, but if he really wanted to reach it, he needed to keep it up with the good work; and keeping it up he did.

On his first game with the miami marauders he scored one goal and he also made an assist, assuring an easy win for his loved team.

His first ever season in the VHLM went marvelous as in 45 games played he scored 11 goals but also made 16 assits, not bad for a rookie whoplays for the first time in America; but he did not stope there as Sebastian also helped his team to reach the playoff, even if the Miami marauders started the season miserably, his loved team unfortunately did not pass the first round of the playoffs but still, in 6 games Sebastian achived to score 2 goals, let me say it again, not bad for a rookie at his first approach with the playoffs.

 

But now that this season passed, what is next for the great Sebastian Thunder?

As I am writing this article Seb was drfated again by the miami marauders in the VHLM draft as the third choice, he was also drfated by the Rome Gladiators in the VHLE draft as the 39th choice, and it dosen't end here, as, FINALLY, he was drfated also by a team of the VHL, now, I guess you are all wondering wich team we are all talking about, let me give you a hint, it was the team of his father, someone can say it is a tradition, someone can say it is pure luck, what I can say is that Sebastian Thunder was drafted as the 27th overall by The Riga Reign.

But this time will be different, Sebastian will try with all that he has to win something for Riga, to finally become the best Thunder that has ever worn the Riga Reign jersey.
