Defenseman Hackett Fitting in Nicely

[Renomitsu 934]

Brampton, ON - Recent reports regarding new defenseman Saul Hackett's arrival for the Brampton Blades have been positive, at least in the couple of days he has been with the team. Paired with defender Mikael Lagerkvist, Hackett is a generally reserved individual that plays with poise and deceptive strength - which seems to complement the Blades' other second-line defenseman just fine. Off the ice, he has been elusive, avoiding the press in most cases, but presenting himself as a composed individual when he elects to address them.

 

Most of his off-time has been spent familiarizing himself with the game, particularly by watching game film; his passion for the game is evident in this manner, and it seems as though he's taken to the coaches of the Blades, indicating that he has "the utmost respect for the personnel up here in Brampton." He has been seen asking questions to the (if only slightly) more veteran defenders on the team - among them Daryn Petersenn and Jed Moseley - although we'll need to see his performance in the coming weeks to see how well he's getting along with his team.
