Carefull not to lump them all together now .....
This winter i coached a bantam AAA team ( thats hockey ) these kids are 14 to 16 and i'll tell you one thing .... you better be one tough ass motherfucker to step on the ice and drop the gloves with some of my lads .
I had two defenceman that were both well over 6 feet and just shy of 200lbs
who could throw punchs faster then you could see them coming and take them just as well ... These kids don't whine .. they love the taste of blood and don't know the meaning of the word pussy .
Bantam is the level the NHL starts to draft and these kids know it ..
They are also very well versed in the drug subculture and believe winny is there birthright but most are afraid of the joint discomfort . Believe you me for every 10 who don't know anything there are a few who are in the loop .
