Cruisin' Altitude

[JumpierPegasus 52]

On a most recent flight to Europe to play a series against the European Conference in the VHLM the team playing out of Brampton, Ontario got to relax. The most dominate team of the season, no one could stop them. Goaltender Coca Cola was playing stellar hockey, and recent acquisitions of new blood was instilling more life into the team, even after moving out their top scorer.

He is getting noticed and significantly better just by association every game. Many players would take this as an opportunity to coast, to cruise along in their game, but not Perron. Every day he is at the gym, making himself work harder because he wants to be the best on this very good team. He wants to be the first name called at the upcoming draft, and he knows that he can't do that by just finding a height on his flight and leveling off.
