1. What was your initial reaction to being drafted by Halifax?

Honestly I wasn’t too surprised, but it did hurt being picked 6th out of the 7 major goalies. I’m happy to be here and I’m eager to earn my place as one of the best in the league.

I knew it would happen, but I wish to see a decent player enter our LR to help us stay competitive after losing our top draft pick.

Spiritually I would have to say there is nothing more majestic than Dragons but they are far exceeding of any animal, so I can’t even classify them as that. More like gods in physical form. Wait what was the question?? Uhh cats and dogs, that’s a normal answer right? Cats and Dogs..

Team Chemistry and Morale have been through the roof!! Everyone on the team is very close off the ice now, and it is definitely showing on the ice. Our teamwork is amazing, and we stick to our game.

Played ball hockey and beer leagues after that just because I love them game.

The main difference maker is innovation on the coaching front. We are now doing things that our opponents haven't seen before.

We probably have to do a bit of work to build chemistry with all the new guys but we certainly are in the playoff picture.

Not sure I can pick every single one out presently off the top of my head. I'd probably have to say of the ones I do know well it's going to be the Coyotes. That style has always been so cool on a sweater.

Personally I would buy, but not a lot. Just 1 more solid Defender if possible.

I think we just barely lost to the best teams in the league. We are good, steady as she goes!

3. What has been your favorite part about Halifax so far?

The LR has been amazing, but in comparison to other teams.. I feel like I got more chance to shine as a goalie due to us not having overwhelming star power. It’s been amazing on and off the ice!

4. If you had predict our first round playoff matchup, who do we play?

Miami. It sucks.. but I think the reality is that we will face in the 1st round.

5. Do you think McDavid will be better than Crosby by the end of their careers?

Definitely. Both are generational talents for sure, McDavid just doesn’t have a Stanley Cup yet. When he does, he will hands down go down in history as the better player.

6. What's your favorite videogame?

Right now I’ve been playing a lot of Master Duel (mostly because I’m a YugiTuber so I always play yugioh) but I’ve been hooked on Destiny 2 again for the past 3 weeks! Love it so much and I forgot how fun it way!!
