WellwhileplayinghockeyIrememberplayingintheMarliesTournamentandwereally enjoyedbeatingtheteamfromtoronto. QUESTIONS TO PLAYERS: Paul Bissonnette (Paul s interview had to be conducted via through Tyler Bielby rec d Aug 16 thank you) WMHA Story Questions: 1) Why does Paul come back to Welland? Paul comes back to his hometown in the offseason because it is his roots where he gets to see family and friends, who of which he built relationships with as a young boy. He also does not have any dependants or a wife, so he is not tied down anywhere else. 2) How does it feel to have Hometown kids look up to Paul? It is a cool feeling to know hundreds of kids from Welland look up to him. It keeps him humble in his feet and he knows how exciting it is for them because he was a kid at one point himself. 3) Is there a WMHA memory? Favorite memory of WMHA was in his last year at the minor hockey level. In his Bantam Major AAA year, he team made it to the OHFs. They did not win but it was gratifying to put on a Welland jersey and represent his hometown at such an elite level. 4) Did Paul have any idols growing up in hockey or in life? Idols growing up.hockey Adam Foote.big tough nose defenceman Life.His parents for showing him a path of hardwork and supporting him with his dream. Optional questions: 1) Hard work or talent? Hard Work 2) Played any other sports? Played soccer but gave it up to focus on hockey as he got older 3) Do you have a favourite Christmas memory? Favorite Christmas memory was at home.after opening all of his presents, he thought he was done and his mom told him there was one more gift under the couch. It was on Paul s wish list it was a new Gretzky silver aluminum one piece. Back in that day it was $100 stick and the first non wooden stick he ever used. 4) Five hole or top shelf? Paul said he often tried top shelf but ends up fanning on it and going five hole (hahaha) 5) Are goalies really crazy?..yes, backups are a little more normal though.
