Before injuring his MCL on Dec. 18, Aces forward Tony Resendes was thriving in the EPHL, scoring 13 points in just eight games. Drawing praise from his teammates and coaches, Resendes was quickly becoming a big piece of the team’s puzzle and formed an exceptionally exuberant line with Mike Thomson and B.J. Kuper, which was producing offensively as well as shutting down the opposition’s top line every night.
Now out six to eight weeks with a third-degree sprain of his MCL, Resendes is now forced to watch on the sidelines.
Nevertheless, the youngster has proved his ability as a teammate over he past few games, cheering for his teammates in the stands and handing out congratulatory slaps on the rear outside the locker room after games. Chatting with Aces Over Brooklyn on Dec. 13 before the team took on the New Jersey Rockhoppers, Resendes talks about his game, his influences and what he thinks of his new teammates.
