Aaltonen on his hot start to the season.

[GRZ 179]

We briefly caught up with Mikko Aaltonen after they lost to Halifax 21st, with the scoreline of 1-2

Q: Hey Mikko! So far you have played 4 games and have gotten 6 goals and an assist, which is 6x more points than you had last season, how does it feel?
It feels nice, as we all know I only played 11 games last season, but this season I was committed to starting off hot and without mercy. I felt really good on skates and yeah, the pucks just flew in themselves.
Q: Talking about your first game in Philadelphia, how was it playing in front of a crowd that is getting a first impression of you guys as a team, and give me your general thought's on how the game went.
The feelings were amazing, as soon as we skated on the rink, we were saluted by loud cheers from around the arena and let me tell you it was packed till the roof, everyone was loud and I felt that this is pretty much the best place I've played at, so far in my career.
The crowd was constantly letting us know that we have their support and emotions were insane during the game, and I really felt like we were playing some awesome hockey for the fans.
The game itself was close, and it felt like both teams wanted to start the season of with a bang, we just wanted this so much more for our fans, and I trully believe that we'll set some records for this franchise.
