It took TJ Bayley a while to even do anything, so when his first goal came, it was absolutely fantastic. Literally, imagine being on a new team with no one around in which you know. Everyone is looking at you as a second round pick and you cannot even do anything, you can only imagine how that feels. So when I finally put the first point on the board and then the first goal, it felt like something else. It really was like a monkey was taken off my back. Everyone around was a lot less stressed and I know I was as well. That took a lot of pressure off being called a bust. From there, you can tell that my game has been a lot more relaxed and I have played a lot better. I still have that puck that I scored in my basement. I do not think that will be going anywhere. I bet my parents will want to keep that one forever. This is a memory in the SMJHL in which I will never forget. For me, it took a lot off my mind so I can just worry about playing hockey and let everything come to me. It is what it is, but it has been fun.
