Commissioner's Corner - Craig Hixon

Describe how it feels to finally play for one team.

It feels good to finally be involved with just one organization instead of trying to play your heart out for every team in the league and trying not to disappoint the 2pm teams even though a hard fought two games have already been played. I also love the feeling that every Saturday's performance counts towards lifting that FHL Cup that I never had the opportunity to win with just one program.

Did you anticipate the Jets taking you before the draft? I truly thought that would be one of the last teams to select me. If you look back at their franchise history, they were all veterans and with me only being 17 I never dreamed that I would be wearing that beautiful royal blue. How much does it help having a core of young players on your team that you can relate to? It helps out a lot. Most of those young players on our team I have been friends with since before high school, so to get us all together out on the ice with their jet fast speed helps out a bunch. You guys are currently in 4th place, but only a game out of 1st. Do you consider the Jets a legitimate threat to win the cup? Without a doubt. Truly any team is a threat. With the way the system works you only need 3 wins in the entire season to win the Cup so it will all come down to who is the hungriest in June. What other team(s) do you feel has the best shot to win it all? Mostly all have good shots. Crosby's with Bono, Thunder with Kanz. Like I said June is the time to show up and leave everything you have out on that rink. Favorite FHL player to watch? When he's not up against me, Mr. Kanz Favorite NHL player? All time- Patrick Roy, Current-have to go with Geno 1st half FHL MVP? Tony B. Best FHL goalie? All-time Mr. Meade, Current-Marty is having one hell of a year. Favorite sport other than hockey? Soccer Most underrated player in the FHL? Max "The Vehicle" Vehec Toughest player to face in a shootout? haha, well looking across the ice Mr. Seaman put 2 top shelf on the other goalies so I'm going with him.
