I had the pleasure of sitting down with my new teammates and Scarecrows veteran Teddy Cuddles.

1. You're a 6'5" player in the league. That seems to be on the top end around here. How does your height impact your game play?

Being 6'5" in this league is definitely not a normality. I'm definitely one of the bigger guys out there. Being tall makes you harder to get off the puck a lot of the time. A guy who is a few inches shorter than you will have trouble laying you out most of the time. It also may make you seem less skilled. People have written off my skill and just assumed, "oh he's big, he must be a goon or a grinder" which is not the case. With that negative, being tall is still a big help with my style of play

2. How do you think the Scarecrows are going to do this year? Do you see any primary rivals in the coming season?

I think the Crows will have a decent year. We are usually competitive and we are following up back to back 1st place finishes in the regular season. We will definitely not be as strong as last year, we lost some of our top scorers and our starting goalie, but we have a very strong defense and a good group of forwards. The Crows don't really have a rival due to it being hard to establish rivalries in a league where players are always moving up, but the closest to a rival this year would be the Colorado Mammoths. Last season, they upset us in the playoffs in a triple overtime game 7, so the team is out for revenge

3. Would you say you're more of an otter or a bear (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifLgVPVjmgI for reference)?

IRL, im an otter, but my player is definitely a bear
