Stonepillar 3 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) Xavier Kirkland Age : 17 Hometown : Lewiston, Maine Height : 6'1 Weight : 230lbs Type of Player : Offensive Defenseman Pros / Cons The pros of my style of play are definitely 1 my ability to score goals, 2 my ability to make great passes and fly down the ice like a rocket when I need to, and finally 3 I have no problem with taking orders from anyone, I am not a difficult person to get along with. The biggest faults i could point out in my play would all have to do with my physical play. I'm not really the type of player to ram someone into the boards very hard or drop the gloves when its needed but I do throw out a hit every so often. My play style can definitely fit any team and I am willing to learn from others to fit any team that i get drafted to even if that means learning how/when to fight or how to deliver a big clean hit when its needed. As far as discipline goes yes I make mistakes every so often but who doesn't? I have never gotten a double minor or game misconduct in all of my years of playing and I try my hardest to not take stupid 2 minute minors all the time. My strength is no issue here as you can see, I'm 6'1 230 lbs of pure muscle. My puck handling skills are not the greatest but they are definitely not the worst, I practice my puck handling skills on and off depending on how confident I am with my ability to control/manage the puck. I think overall my defensive play is good and my offensive play is great. I have been playing hockey since I was 4 years old and I have a lot of experience but obviously my experience will grow when I am drafted to a VHLM team. Locker Room I am very easy to get along with and I think my peers and past team mates would describe me as a prankster/joker. I like to play and joke around with people just to have a good laugh before or after a game to calm the nerves and release some stress. I would like to spend some time with the boys after games and get to know them better. Maybe pick up some old habits or advice from them from them that will improve my game. I also have no problem with teaching other people more about some of my personal tricks to improve their game as well. I am not a very shy person and I am very easily approachable so I think I have a perfect personality for a healthy locker room.
