The 28-year-old Canadian replied, “Back in competitive play, tough. I’d say it’s tough just because it’s been a while. It’s been like four years. So, it’s not as tough as I was expecting. I was expecting it to be extremely difficult. But the balance is not too bad. The coach over here is helping me adjust. So, it’s not too bad at all.”
