When did you decide to go over?
"Since a year back when I played at the U18 World Cup, I felt like ice hockey over there seemed very exciting and it was something that attracted me a lot. Going over to the USHL and playing there is something I've been looking forward to for a long time.
What attracted you to playing in the USHL?
"There were many things that feel positive. In addition to facing better players and playing at a very high level, I want to try to live in the United States and also have the opportunity to combine studies on the side.
"The decision is entirely my own, but on the other hand they (Detroit) think it's also positive for them because it makes it easier for them to see me. Their goalie coach in the AHL will also have the opportunity to come over and help me and follow my development.
