Just a parent being a parent. Look at all the parents out there that are convinced their kids are going to make the NHL even though no Jr team is scouting them.
This is just at a more visible level but Svens Dad just being a proud Dad.
The thing is Svens Dad should realize his son is not going to be a physical forward so he is not going to be effective in a checking role or on the 4th line. Sven has to be a 2nd line player if he is going to make it in the NHL and is he really a better everygame player than any of our top 3 at his position.
JMO I don't think he is.
