ALAYNA DENOFRIO

POSITION: DEFENSESHOOTS: RIGHT
As a primary defenseman, I use my high hockey IQ to see the ice well and create plays quickly. I create scoring opportunities by creating shooting lanes from the blue line and rushing the puck when I see the opportunity. To enhance my footwork along with puck movement on the ice I train with the Power Edge Pro Program. Off the ice, I continue to work on strength, stick improvement and feed back from coaches. I also make academics a piority to move forward and succeed in my future.
