EAGLES INTERVIEW AFTER 20

 

Interview with Greg Eagles

 

Hello Readers!

This week we sat down with the San Diego Marlins goalie Greg Eagles for a one on one interview. We talked about the season so far and the Marlins surprising start to the season.

NS: Hello Greg, Thank you for taking the time to sit with us today. We have been following you all season and we are excited to once again discuss how the current season is going!
GE: Hey New Sreportski! Very excited to be here again.

NS: So let's start off with the first question, how do you think you have been playing so far in your first season?
GE: I think I have been playing well, I mean there is always room for improvement but in my first season so far I have some decent stats and have helped my team win. Sure there have been instances where I had some bad games and let in soft goals but it's all a learning experience and the team has been very supportive

NS: Those stats are pretty impressive, so far you are 5th in the league in Save percentage with a .893 and 7th in GAA with a 2.87. Can you tell us a little bit about how you plan on improving?
GE: Well right now in practice I am really focusing on my reaction times. I have been pretty slow reacting in the first 20 games and it has lead to some bad goals. So that is my main focus and after that I believe I will be working on my skating and agility.

NS: What do you think of the Marlins play so far this season?
GE: I think we have been great, we have surprised many teams. No one thought we would be 4th in the league but here we are. Our GM has been great in putting together the team and the lines. Our forward line has been led by Tannahill, Marleau and Clarkson, they have been playing amazing and the defense has been anchored by Tate and Sparrow who have been solid on both ends of the ice. Everyone else has also been chipping in. Right now we have a great locker room chemistry and everyone is playing to their full potential.

NS: With the Marlins playing so well  have the objectives changed for the season?
GE: I don't think so, our main objective was to make the playoffs this season and we are still aiming for that goal. Once we reach that goal, obviously the objective will change to focus on winning it all but right now we only have one objective.

NS: I noticed that you also have 2 points on the season which is usually rare for a goalie, can you tell us a little about that?
GE: I always try to get involved anyway I can, I have been practicing passing with goalie sticks since I was a young kid and this has come in handy this season. I love being able to contribute offensively while also helping out by keeping the pucks in the net.

NS: Thank You Greg, That is all the time we have this week. We look forwarding to keeping up with the Marlins and you as the season progresses .
GE: Thanks New!

With the interview over, all we have left to ask here at the Wroclaw Times is will these Marlins continue playing well and have a miracle season? All our of readers hope so and we wish them all the best of luck the rest of the season. We will also be rooting for Greg to earn his first ever shutout, when he does you can be sure we will be covering that story!

Until next time!
