John Dawkins has been an avid hockey fan since he first played Blades of Steel on his older brother’s Nintendo at the age of 5.  He watches games, he coaches a rec. league team and he now has a blog so he can stop driving his future wife nuts.  His love of hockey has caused him to travel far and wide to watch live games.  John especially loves watching the next generation of NHL talent playing in leagues the world over.  He makes it his business to assess, predict and inform about kids who will be the future of one of the greatest sports leagues in the world.
