At 9 years old Tyler Seguin was a
special player and his hard work and dedication was rewarded as
he was the second player selected in this years NHL draft by the
Boston Bruins. Remarkably 12 of the 17 players pictured in this 2002
Championship photo when they where only 9 have gone on to some level
of Jr Hockey. Pictured in the second row third from the left is a
young Tyler Seguin to his left is OHL first rounder Ryan O'Connor.
There are lots of examples of players who were outstanding when they
were younger who remain at the top of the game as they progress
through hockey so don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise. Adam
Henrique who played Regional Express from the age of 7 all the way
through to the age of 15 just won back to back Memorial Cups with
the Windsor Spitfires and no doubt we will see him in a New Jersey
Devils uniform before long. He was one of the best 1990 born players
when he was 7 and he remains one of the top 1990 born players today
along with his past Regional teammate Nazem Kadri who we should be
watching next year with the Leafs.
