Montel Displeased with Shorten Playing Time

On the eve of the Waterford Whaler's inaugural game, management has decided to increase the roster to 9skaters and a goalie. They have added interim goaltender Spot from the Western Ontario League. This means that Boytanio will be free of his obligation of filling the vacant goaltender position.

Management has made the following statement "After long and tiresome hours of scouting and evaluated in house talent. We've decided to add Spot to our roster and allocate Boytanio to play offense. Spot has perform well for his OHL team the Land Otters, and we think he can help the Whalers until Killington can return. This also means the offense will have an extra player, and we give us added depth up front with Boytanio. We're very excited about tomorrow's game against the Land Sharks and think we have a very competitive hockey team. "

With the addition of Boytanio to the offense it provides the Whalers with options of shuffling the lines. We caught up with Montel and ask him his thoughts about this announcement.

How do you feel about having an extra skater on offense?
"I'm not happy at all. This is going to effect my playing time and performance"

How is it going to effect your performance"
"I can't play well, if I'm not getting the amount of playing time I deserve. How am I going to score 40goals if I have to sit an extra shift. That is total bull- and I'm very upset with how management handle the situation."

Why are you angry with management?
"They didn't consult with the Assistant Captain and offense captain for one. Its a slap in the face that they don't trust my offensive skills of camping out in front of the net and producing for this organization. Second they haven't taken into account of my new found strength which has added 20mph to my wrist shot and 40mph to my slap shot. And finally didn't they see my resume from last season, I was a beast with 30goals in my first season as an indoor roller hockey player. I don't understand management."

How are you going to respond?
"I'm not predicting 60goals for the season. So its just going to motivate me to play harder and better with this BS shorten shifts. Did Wayne Gretzky have to sit an extra shift? I don't see why the Montel has to either.

Tomorrow's game against the Land Sharks is at 10pm, please arrive a half hour early and beat the traffic.
