It’s no fun to hear about your son, one way or the other. I also don’t try to give too much input because, as a dad, i know we only see the best parts. There’s a dad bias – so i kinda stay out of that.

“he played center growing up for the most part,” said jarome. “when he started in seattle, playing as a 16-year-old, he probably played half and half, center and wing, but he didn’t play that much. So then this year, he played wing pretty much the whole time. But he talked to the coach going out and next year he’ll work at trying to get him to play center. He enjoyed center more. He wants to be a center. The coach said he’ll give him a chance next year. So yeah, i think he’ll probably be a center.
