Player Spotlight- #2 Arram Chinarian
by Chris Bilder, Generals Staff Writer
Eugene, OR-
Chris Bilder: You were part of the biggest trade the Generals have made in a couple of years. How has the trade from Helena worked out for you?
Arram Chinarian: Bomb. Its awesome living at Jayne’s [Detering] house, and coming here to play hockey every day.
CB: Compare and contrast your experiences in Helena and Eugene.
AC: There are fewer one-way streets in Helena. Overall the team here is more fun and a lot closer together.
CB: What has been your favorite moment this season?
AC: There are so many. I think the teambuilding stuff has been my favorite part of this season so far. I loved paintballing and watching Bilder eat the gross stuff we made in Iron Chef.
CB: This is your first season of Junior hockey. Is it everything you thought it would be?
AC: No. It is so much more. Its definitely a different lifestyle than on the outside (laughs).
CB: You have 3 goals and 9 assists with the Generals. Are you happy with your point production?
AC: Yes. Its like a hat trick in a season right (laughs).
CB: What do you feel is the strongest part of your game?
AC: The strongest part of my game is probably the physical presence I have out on the ice.
CB: Would you rather have a big hit in a game or a big goal?
AC: Oh big hit, obvi. Anybody can put the puck in the net, but it takes a man to put a body on the ground. And, it helps to psyche up the team a lot.
CB: What is the most fun part of hockey for you?
AC: All the friends I’ve made over the years.
CB: What are your goals for the rest of the season?
AC: Help my teammates be better hockey players.
CB: What do the Generals need to do to beat Rogue Valley and Tri-City this weekend?
AC: We need to have everybody play their role out on the ice.
