It has been years and years since it wasn't like this.

It's funny, the kid I know with the best shot of "making it" hung up his skates at the end of every season and didn't pull them out again till mid-August.

This boy (who my is the same age as my son, 16, and buddies with my son) just went in the first round of the WHL draft.

I will also add that those parents that didn't play sport at a "high level" are generally the worst at being sucked into dropping tonnes of money.
