I had big skates to fill, so it was a good thing I loved every second of it. Growing up as the brother of a second hockey God is another. Growing up as the son of a hockey God is one thing. I could never be a woman his family approved of. If my life had taught me anything up to this point, it was how to avoid making bad decisions, and Justin Stone was the definition of a bad decision. He was magnetic, powerful, and a player - in all forms of the word. What I wasn't prepared for was meeting his new summer coach. When he won a whole summer of hockey training, I knew in my heart he was going to have an amazing time. I'd do anything to make sure he doesn't suffer because of the bad decisions his father made. Hockey is the only thing my son seems to care about, so I work two jobs to make sure he can play. Still, I wouldn't change my past because that boy is my world.
