Me?....A goalie dad?

The other week we would up having a scrimmage with our advanced team and Stanley wound up being beween the pipes. He did a wonderful job and I'm extremely proud of him. We've been rotating the boys in and out of the equipment different weekends so he'll be up for it again soon.

Tonight I got a phone call from our level coordinator and the first words out of his mouth were "So I hear you got yourself a goalie there!" Needless to say I was a bit shocked but I guess that the head coach from the advanced team was pretty high on his performance. The kid loves playing goal, but he also loves skating out and scoring goals as well. He's told my his career path - Rosemount - Gophers - and then the Wild (he's also going to have the first 2-position contract in the NHL).

He's only a Mite so there is obviously a lot of time. It's not like I'm going to be putting him in goalie camps all summer long or anything, but I wonder if I'm up for sitting in the stands all by myself when the forthcoming seasons come by.

Any other goalie dads out there with some advice?
