the full story of matt thunder

[Matt thunder 444]

Matt thunder was born in nice little village, Pont-Aven (you should really check this place out, it is wonderful) in Brittany ( a french region), a village that you might know as the well know painter Gauguin lived there for a short time, before leaving for Polynesia,  to escape the life in Paris.

But let's go back to the life of Matt, no?

 

Matt since he was kid he loved playing sports and he also loved playing music but not pop or rock, but EDM, he also had a short carrer in music as a dj, but he gave up to focus only on hockey as  he was better in that than music 

 

The funny part of this story is the he never played hockey before the age of 13 as in his little village no one knew what was hockey, it was thanks to his uncle that lived in Canada  (in Quebec to be honest) that he discovered hockey.

 

So after falling in love whit this wonderfull sport he joined a near hockey club and started playing in the defense, as  he loved to study the enemy and punching people, because you might not know but the people who live in Brittany are know for loving to fight as they are drunk most of the time. ( drinking is the second thing they love to do by the way)

After having played different years in France and showing what he was capable of, he was scouted by Halifax and joined them for 18 games in the season 72 making only 1 assist, the season after (73) he was drafted by Las Vegas (68th overall) and he slowly started to become better 15 ( 1 G and 14 A) points in the S73, 51 ( 12G and  39 A) points in S74  and finally in the S75 he became the captain of Las Vegas  and he finished 8th in the defenseman standing whit 67 points ( 16 G and 51 A) 

 what a year by someone that was picked 68th in the vhlm draft and probably seen as a failure by someone. 

 

the S75 will also be his last one  season in the vhlm as  in the next season he will fiannly join Riga in the vhl, but he will sadly say goodbye to his loved team that made him grow in to the player he is right now, the Las Vegas Aces. 

this is the full story of Matt Thunder for now ,but who knows what the future has  in store for him, maybe future hall of fame or maybe only a failure, we will se, but of course we hope the best for him.
