A high-scoring, bruising power forward has the potential to lift the Regina Pats to new heights. Granted, the kid I'm thinking of won't be eligible for full-time duty in the WHL for another EIGHT years, but still.
Young Jacob had a career day for the novice rec Bullets yesterday, notching three goals in tournament action. Maybe not Crosby-esque numbers, but let's keep in mind the Jakester did score 60% of his team's goals, while shutting down the opposition's top forwards. At least that's how it looked from my vantage point!
I really, really like that kid.
Update: The prodigy scored the winning goal in the Bullets' 3-0 victory this afternoon. I imagine Ripper will be calling any day now.
I see the Pats knocked off Kelowna this afternoon. Bonus.

Terrifc post Pete! Congrats to your son and you. Those are moments to cherish with your kid. You know he will.
Was at the game today. Glad we won but boy oh boy the Rockets look like a very good club. They are both big and fast.
The boys are still not playing a 60 min game. They need to start doing so right now. We also need some player help and I sure hope some is on the way soon.
I'd be really surprised, and disappointed, if the Pats' roster doesn't change (at least a bit) between now and the trade deadline.
As for mini-Pete - loving every minute of it!
