Aces forward Jesse Felten knows space on the ice this season isn’t going to come through intimidation tactics.
To succeed in pro hockey, the 22-year-old, who stands in at 5′9 and 165 pounds knows he has to have a few endearing qualities to make a career out the game he’s spent his entire life playing.
Luckily, he’s got NHL-caliber speed and has been playing against bigger players his entire life.
“I come from a big family,” said Felten. “I was adopted and have 16 brothers. There are 23 of us all together. 10 of us were in hockey at one time. It’s a huge thing in our family.”
Add in a wicked release and some solid stick handling ability and it’s easy to see that Felten has the potential to be a star in his first season in pro hockey.
Calm and cool, Felten too sees himself playing a big part in the Aces offensive attack this season.
