For me personally and my team the biggest storyline from this season on Newfoundland is how all the rookies from last year have really been coming through to help the team be at the top of the league this year compared to the disappointing season last. In S57 Newfoundland's first draft pick grabbed Billy Brooks at Number 11, Brooks first year on the team had him put up 2 goals and 9 assist with a rough -40 on the year but has done a full 180 so far this season holding up the back end currently sitting at 6 goals and 9 assists just 35 games into the season, not to mention his 22 shot blocks and 17 takeaways. 

  Next up the Berserkers didn't have any picks in the second round but with the 3rd round 31st overall pick we picked up Ric Charlesworth aka Ric Clutchworth who has been nothing but fantastic this year. In Charlesworth rookie year he had a decent 5 goals and 13 assists on a struggling team and as the routine will continue to show Ric has been amazing this year scoring huge goals and important moments and netting himself 16 goals and 16 assets in 35 games played.


  The 4th round saw us grab the first 2 picks (37 and 38) who was Nike Kickz Jr and Jesse Trudeau, Nike had one of the better rookie years putting up 22 points on the year and now has been playing as our first line center putting lots of pressure on him but has been living up to the challenge no problem and continues to get better after every week and has been a good powerplay man for us notching 3 points. Trudeau is up next who plays on Kickz Jr right side had a very rough rookie season with only 4 goals and 15 points but is in the running for most improved as he has jumped to 11 goals with 23 points in 35 games played, with the help of Nike and Podcalzone as his line mates most of the year currently having a +15 on the first line.

The rookies from S57 are becoming a big part of why Newfoundland has seen the success as long with new talent coming in and the veterans helping the Berserkers are a very fun team to watch this season.
