Tochkin hopes for a rebirth as a Raider
The newest member of the Prince Albert Raiders looks upon his trade from the Medicine Hat Tigers as a new beginning.
Kellan Tochkin wasn't surprised by Monday's deal feeling he never really fit in after being acquired by the Tigers in a January 2011 trade from the Everett Silvertips.
“Just from the time I got there despite great, great teamates, but just from a playing standpoint, it wasn't the best fit for me so I was very happy they sent me to somewhere that I'm going to get a really good opportunity” said Tochkin.
He continued to comment while looking at forty years of team pictures outside the Raider dressing room before his first pracice with new teamates.
