Faux Back to Winning

Last week Marcel Faux got traded to the Toronto Legion from the Helsinki Titans. The Titans were near the bottom of the league and the Legion are at the top. Marcel Faux is used to winning with Helsinki so this change is exactly what the doctor ordered. Faux was won everyone he has been, from Bern to Saskatoon then to Helsinki. Throughout his time Helsinki the Titans were respectable then rose up to contender status. The Titans won back to back cups and lost in the finals to the team Faux is now a part of. When we last looked at Marcel he was struggling in Helsinki with under a point per game. His last game with Helsinki was his best. He had 4 points in a big win for Helsinki. Prior to that he also had a hat trick versus his brother’s Riga Reign. He left Helsinki with 18 goals and 11 assists for 29 points in 30 games.

“It was kind of weird going to the team that beat us for the cup last season. But I will get over eventually get over it at some point while in there. It is just a weird feeling. We were so good in Helsinki for a while there it is just kind of hard to forget it.  I have been there my whole career until now so it is kind of sad to leave now when I am getting ready to call it quits in a few years.”

Since joining the Legion the team is 4-1 with Faux in the line-up. They had one hiccup versus Riga where RIG G played his heart out and won. Other than that Marcel has been pretty effective thus far with the Legion. He has 2 goals and 3 assists for 5 points in 5 games. This year Faux will probably not produce like he did last season scoring over a hundred points but for Faux winning is more important.

“In a perfect world I would be producing a lot of points and winning. But really winning is the most important thing for me. I have been on a lot of winning teams and have not produced. Winning to me feels better than just scoring a boat load of points. After all hockey is a team sport. If the team is winning and eventually holding the cup at the end, than nothing else matters really.”

So far everything looks to be heading in the right direction for Faux. He is on a winning team and starting to chip in offensively with some points. As Faux begins to get more comfortable maybe he will start showing signs of his amazing breakout season last year. If not the Legion are still going to get a great player for their cup run and for a season or two after. The Legion still could compete next season too if everything goes right. So Marcel might be able to add a few more trophies to his already crowded case if everything goes well. Next week we will see how Marcel has been progressing with the Legion.
