Johnathan Aitkin

Well, I played against Kyle Mack Claire and he was a great person to and make maybe to have a channels top play with him in the future would be an honor and Ray Bourque. I've watched Ray Bourque my whole childhood and I'm pretty impressed with his work ethic and level of skill, so, it's a great act to follow.

I had a really good interview with them yesterday afternoon and, you know, they're doing really well. All my interviews went really well ^ except for Boston and it's real, including Boston and it is really great to be here.

You know, I talked confidently and they had good questions and they enjoyed probably the way I talked and how I presented myself which was a big thing about it.

Yeah, actually I was, you know, I thought from all the rankings, they're around 15 and 20, so, I that you had -- would be a great margin to go by. But going higher is great and it's really an accomoplishment for all the work I've put in.
