Peace overjoyed with immediate success.

DAVOS, SWITZERLAND -- Rylan Peace's rookie season is in the books, and he himself admitted that it was less than satisfactory. Thankfully - after a trade to the Dynamo - Peace's offensive performance has seemed to pick up traction as the teams top centre, but he never expected to explode offensively like he has this early into the season. The HC Davos Dynamo have played seven games, where they sit with a record of 3-4-0, a place that isn't last in the league unlike recent history. A large part of that early season improvement is the production of Davos' top lines, both their forward and defensive units, while Davidson has had displays of brilliance for the hockey club. 

Although the season has only just begun, Rylan Peace has already scored eight goals for the HC Davos Dynamo. This early production is already thirty three percent of the goals he scored compared to the seventy two game, twenty four goal effort in his rookie season. Alongside the pucks he lit the red lamp with, Peace has acquired seven apples for a grand total of fifteen points. In fact... those fifteen points in seven games put him on pace for an incredible one hundred and fifty four points this season - double what he earned playing for Riga. Obviously we can expect the offense to quietly decrease, but this truly has been an impressive start for the sophomore player making the transition to centre. 

So impressive - in fact - that people are selecting him in fantasy drafts now.

"I've been paying attention to the fantasy drafts," Peace admits, the HC Davos Dynamo centre has earned the confidence of at least a few die-hard hockey fans after the start he's had this season. "After the trade I did some of my own analytical research and I figured the line I'd be placed on - with Dahlberg and Svoboda as my wingers - I knew that we'd all have career seasons. I'm still confident that is the case, and while the season is still young, I don't anticipate our production to cease. Drop, yeah, but not stop."

Peace has enjoyed his his production, and reasonably so, he feels like he's worth something now and positively contributing to a teams success. "Back in Riga I was depressed, I felt like I was more of a liability than an asset. I started the season off on the top line and scored a point in eleven games or something like that. Over the season I just turned miserable, upset at mostly myself for lack of consistency." 

"Sure, I got forty six points, but this isn't the NHL - in a more offensive league where rosters are smaller and players get more ice time, it's not an impressive. If I were in the NHL, forty six points would have made GMs and fans happy. I chose to play in the VHL and I felt like my rookie season was a disappointment, I know what I was capable of and I personally believe I fell far short of my own individual expectations."
