It may be early July, but Damon Severson is already preparing
for the start of the NHL season.
The New
Jersey Devils defenceman, who makes Kelowna his off-season home, says his team
should be better with the recent acquisition of PK Subban.
"I
think it is exciting for us to add that flavour to our dressing room. I think,
on the ice, his play speaks for itself. It is more of will he be able to mesh
with us off the ice. It should be just fine".
Severson
is coming off a season where he collected a career high 39 points.
"This
is the third year I have been out here (Kelowna) for summer time. I can't
complain one bit. It is beautiful. Everyone is friendly. Good people.
Obviously, I played here with the Rockets so I know the area well. I can't
see myself livng anywhere else in the world', Severson
added.
The 24
year-old was born in Brandon, Manitoba, grew up in Melville, Saskatchewan, but
trains in the Okanagan with fellow NHL
colleagues Brayden and Luke Schenn.
