Hey there! I just read about Andy Earl and his journey with the Ice Wolves, and I have to say, it's stories like his that really highlight the heart and soul of hockey. The way he was welcomed into the team and how he acknowledges his mom as his biggest inspiration is just so touching.
It's incredible to see how the sport fosters such strong bonds, not just among teammates but also with family. The fact that he was able to share National Hockey Mom Day with his mom and grandma shows how important family support is in a player's life.
And let's not forget about the development aspect that Coach McKenzie mentioned. It's so crucial for young players to have that time to grow and learn the game. The ladder of development is real, and having a solid foundation in junior hockey can set them up for success in the pros.
What do you think about the importance of family in sports? And how do you feel about the development of young players in leagues like the AHL and ECHL?
