Michael Herringer knows he has to be at his best for his team to have success.
The 20 year-old wouldn't have it any other way.
As
the starting goaltender for the Kelowna Rockets, the Comox, BC resident
is ready for the pressure packed playoff games that are in front of
him.
"I'm excited", Herringer said after practice Wednesday.
"We
are ready. Especially with a lot of people pointing fingers at us this
year saying we are not as good as last year and we do not have what it
takes to win again, that fuels you".
Herringer is no stranger
to the WHL playoffs, closing out series wins against Tri City, Victoria
and Portland last season. Starter Jackson Whistle was pulled and
Herringer came into the game and earned the win.
"Every game you
want to play for the guys that are in the dressing room with you. They
battle tooth and nail every game for me, so I want to do the same for
them".
