[quote=Anonymous]Hockey is entirely different. Talented kids, mostly Canadians, go off to "juniors" which in essence is just a pre-professional audition league. Kids go play there for a few teen years to get their stock up to be drafted by the NHL. If that does not happen, "plan B" is to bail on NHL dreams and to go play college lacrosse. It is not maneuver to look better on your youth club team or high school mates because you are older. Actually, now that lacrosse is considered a real sport like others including hockey, lacrosse could do the same and have these committed 16 year old high school freshmen and their lunatic parents put into their own competitive lacrosse juniors league. Then go to Hopkins or whatever when they're 30 for all the rest of us care. What offends me is this crass and unsporting holdback garbage is cheapening out the youth game and making the honest aged kids prejudiced and discouraged about playing the game. That is the bottom line. [/quote]
