Jaden's First Goal!

Jaden scored his first goal in hockey tonight. What a beauty....he was playing his position...left forward...right in front of the left side of the net...the goalie was on the right...the puck came right to him and BAM....nothin' but net!!! I was pretty excited and of course so was he. When he came out of the locker room he tried to stifle the big grin on his face...but he was soooo excited...I could see it. Now I'm not the crazy parent who thinks is kid is the next Wayne Gretzky, or in our case, Sidney Crosby....I was just so proud to see my son out there on the ice playing hard and having a good time. He said to me tonight, "Mom, do assists count in this league? An assist is more important than a goal because if there wasn't an assist there wouldn't be a goal." What a smart kid :)
