A little Panthers fan
Now you definitely feel the buzz building.
With only a few games left in the season, this is when you want to start playing and start playing gear in games like the playoffs, and then you’re ready when those games finally come.
I’m definitely getting more and more excited every day.
As a rookie, it was a lot of fun spending time on the path this season.
I’ve seen so many cities and so many links, so I grew up trying to watch them on TV and watch games. It was a pretty cool experience. It was great to be with everyone.
On the ice, I’m trying to grow all the games. I want to take the good stuff and see what I can do better, and with the bad stuff it’s the same. Bricks, I feel better.
I think a month after the season, things started to feel pretty normal. I started to get into my routine and get used to things. I started building my own game and gained a little more confidence. When that happened, I started to feel better and enjoy more.
Being a young man, playing with so many great players as a rookie was huge for me too. When these guys kept running last year, I was watching them the whole time. It was huge for me as I was by my side to help me along the way.
The South Florida fans are also great for me. They are very nice here. Even just looking at them outside the links they are always positive. It’s so much fun to play in front of them now.
Just like my NHL debut, I also dreamed of that first playoff game.
Any building, it is lively. It’ll be a lot of fun. I can’t wait.
Looking forward to the game in Ottawa on Saturday is the teams that we may see in the playoffs. This is one of the games where you can see how they stack up with them appearing in the playoffs here. The biggest thing for us is to focus on our own games.
Back in South Florida,
