Below are Lucais Meyskens’ answers to CKSN’s Five Questions:

1. What is your career sports highlight/top memory?

I would have to say getting my first Junior C hat trick against Essex 73’s would be right up there.

The New Jersey Devils and for a player, Scott Stevens and for goalie Martin Brodeur.

3. If you could achieve one thing/goal in sports, what would it be?

Make the NHL, but that’s not going to happen, so right now I would say making the playoffs and try to go all the way.

4. Who has been your biggest sports influence and why?

Have to be my parents, without them I wouldn’t be the player I am today. They pushed me hard my whole sports career and did whatever they could to make me a better athlete.

5. What do you love most about playing sports?

I love how competitive it gets and makes you that much better of an athlete and for meeting so many people I have some life time because of sports.
