just thought I would give an update on my son's current situation as he contionues to push for a spot on one of the minor midget AAA spots on our quadrant team.
to date he has played two half games (he is a goalie) and he has been perfect thus far with a GAA of 0 and a Sv % of 1. In addition he has been poised during the games, moved/played the puck when he has had a chance, and most importantly, he communicates with his teammates and you can hear his voice thru the rink.
his team was carrying 4 goalies; however, they released one the other night - so as of today, he has one other goalie in his way.
my son has gotten this far in each of the past two years and it has ended in heartbreak for him. Never before have I hoped to be presented with a bill for $5,000+ like I am right now.
I believe the roster does not have to be finalized until Sept 20th or so, but to me it looks like next Wednesday may be the day where they finalize the team as the practice ends in the middle of the evening.
