Solid family! Solid young man! I don't think he will make it to N.H.L. but he will definitly make it in life's journey.
Wondered if J.P. would get a chance at the next level. Glad to see he's getting a shot. Hope he remembers the degree is the most important part for building his future.
D-Rah for the Captain!
Great job JP! Best of luck with the Aero's... Fly High Baby. Fly High
If you want to follow him, keep an eye on http://thethirdintermission.blogspot.com. We write about all things Aeros over there, so if he gets in the line-up, we'll definitely be talking about him.
he will make the NHL. the size of a person's heart cannot be measured in stats. He was a walk on at DU with no shot..and became captain. he is a winner.
