They have a great background, great hockey, and great people who you can talk about all your issues all the time. This was my first year in America, and it was excellent. The coaching team was excellent, and I have never had a better coach in my life. They have excellent conditions for hockey, and I was completely satisfied with the Pics. The most important thing was that John and Anthony Sarno helped me, which led me to getting the offer for a NCAA D1 school, which is a dream come true. I would like to give a huge thank you to the entire Pics organization, especially the Sarno brothers. This has been the best season I have ever had.”
