  1. That weird nervous excitement when a three and a half year dream, that often seemed far away and was often labeled impossible and crazy, is happening tomorrow.

     

    Yep. Coming to America tomorrow. And staying. And aiming to make the next meet-up. :chug:

     

    Yeah buddy! Congrats. So happy for you.

  2. For the T1 02 team? It's a lot. A LOT. Michael made it. I haven't signed yet, because he has to accept the role as back-up. I weighed the pros and cons, and every great hockey mind I've spoken to has told me to do it, if Michael is ok with it. He has nowhere to go but up, relieves some of the pressure, and has to be a work horse. He'll be practicing with one of the best teams in the tri state area over 100 times from now until next March. It's tough to pass that up as a parent who understands that practices are more important than games. As long as my kid understands it, and is ok with it, and embraces it ... I will sign the contract. Crazy turn of events this week for everyone. Totally insane what happened in the course of 5 days. Coach, and director are awesome, and the upfront honesty goes a loooong way. They'll even excuse me from attending far tournys even if Michael was to get 1 out of 5-6 games. Tough to turn that down.

     

    Sounds like a great opportunity. From everything you have said about your son this maybe be the best thing for him. He likes to work hard and hates failing, so as a backup he will have to be that much better.

     

    He will get a chance to prove himself and benefit from the atmosphere.

     

    Sounds like he can develop some great strategies and tactics that will help him now and later on in hockey and other areas of life.
