rekker Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Another example of lastnameitis. Dad played = son drafted higher than he should of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather chase for a bottom feeder where I have a chance to play and get paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're a real player, you want to compete against the best. That's how you take it to the next level. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chance to get paid and win vs a chance to get paid and get lit up I don't blame the guys who grab the bag, an NHL job is better than no job, but most guys prefer to win 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe of he were a more defensive player who could kill penalties (like Zach Aston-Reese), he'd attract more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those stupid Keith sons. Crap. Total crap. Sometimes it also goes the other way, a crap or fringe Dad, makes a better kid. I remember Chycrun's Dad having a scrap with Probert playing in PHI. Guy was like 6'5". Also remember Bellows with the North Stars. Who's that Sillinger guy in CLB related too? That guy who played a bit with us? It does go both ways. Those Howe kids were pretty good too. For sure they get every single thing possible for a better chance at succeeding. When it comes to guys like Chychrun, i'm pretty stoked.

Going through minor hockey, juniors with kids, I see all too often what last names will get you. Bitter? Maybe, but it's a real thing for sure. Of course, there are some that pan out, but often the name gets you things not having the name can't get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
