I posted this a while back as the dream scenario… flames acquire an extra pick or two in the first round and select Tij with one. Jarome gets to call his son’s name at the draft. Flames fans go nuts. Two years later, Tij makes the team as a gritty 3rd/4th line forward built for playoff hockey… flames win the cup on home ice. Since Tij is the youngest player on the team, he’s the last player that gets to raise it… which also means he gets to be one to hand it off to the first non-player to hold it. For the sake of sports fans everywhere, that next person gets to be his old man. This instantly becomes one of the greatest moments in sports history.
