yave1964 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 My six month old grandson, visiting the house and hanging with Grandpa, breaking him in right with Red Wing gear. First pick in the draft in 2033.AAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNDDDDD: My Grandson Ash who is turning 3 this weekend, has an entire set of gear of his own, the first pick in the draft in 2030. Please ignore the old fat guy in the video, the little blonde kid is the next hockey Superstar. Just sayin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yave1964 Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Not sure what I am doing wrong with the video and why it is not showing up, in short, he has a dozen hockey pucks lined up and is shooting them all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yave1964 Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Cute! I'll be be 70.. Who is gonna draft them! Who is gonna draft them, lets see... The Kansas City Cobras and the Hamilton Tiger Cats. 40 team league by then, with the NHL expanded to Russia and Sweden with the first all Euro Stanley cup the year before (the Swami knows all!).

WingNut722 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Adorable! And since they are a direct descendant of Swami himself, those kids'll be full of unbelievable talent, which means the Kansas City Cobras and Hamilton Tiger Cats would have to be the Oilers and Sabres of the day in order to cash in on such valuable prospects!

WingNut722 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 That kid's got a slapshot like Pulkinnen, and he ain't afraid to use it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podein25 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 @yave1964 Hilarious. You might be surprised to know that the keeper league I'm in has no age limit. So you see guys drafted long before they are drafted in the NHL. Guys like Crosby, McDavid, Ekblad all typically go when they are 16. I had Seth Jones as a 16 year old. Sometimes younger. Like this kid, I took last fall when he was 13: http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=241379 113 points in 30 games in AAA Pee Wee! It sounds weird - even creepy - but many of the guys have teenage boys playing elite hockey and they actually see kids play who look like prodigies and will take a gamble. It's fun to see which hunches pan out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yave1964 Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 @Podein25 OMG that is too funny, a bit creepy but funny!! I have 7 kids and 4 grandkids so far, my three boys have zero interest in Hockey (I should probably get a DNA test) but two of my daugters, the oldest (29) and the youngest (13 are pretty rabid fans. And all of my grandkids, age 3 and under have all of their own equipment, my three year old grandson can even stand up a bit on skates. By next year he will be skating. Maybe a bit old at 4 by Canadian standards, lol, but by USA standards, by God the boy is gonna be a prodigy. Maybe I need to see what i gotta do to pick him up in a keeper league, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podein25 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I have 7 kids and 4 grandkids so far, Holy crap, that's a big family. You don't see 7 kids much these days....odd that the boys were not interested in hockey given their dad's love of the game. But good to see the girls interested.

Podein25 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Xavier is supposed to be the next big thing...we'll see. He's listed as 5'4" so he better start growing! Glad that you've heard of him at least. I took him late on a lark almost. Take the MacLeod boys...the next Strome/Staal/Sutter family. As in "Mikey" McLeod? '98 born?
