Wow, he's amazing. It's incredible how far he's come from a rough childhood. Keep on going Glen!

I wouldn't credit the city of Vernon per sae but rather an extremely well run junior program.

Vernon has a few issues...

I found this to be an interesting and tragic story about Glen Metropolit and thought some of you might like it as well.

wow that's a really sad story but good for him for finding solace in hockey and having the committment to make the nhl
it's also nice that he is such a great dad to his kids. i bet he just wants to make sure that they never have to experience all the crap that he did when he was a kid

Thats an inspiring story.

I'm currently working with his brother in law here in Toronto. Any story I have heard about Glen has been a good one. He seems to be a really great guy.
GO LEAFS GO!!!

Amazing what he's had to overcome. He deserves everything that he has today.
