John Tavares Drafted #1 by the New York Islanders at the Nassau veterans Memorial Coliseum
The wait is finally over! John Tavares is drafted 1st overall in the NHL 2009 Entry Draft! Congratulations to John Tavares. New York has picked up a franchise player and will be in for a real treat. Look for Tavares to help turn this franchise around and for Tavares to have a long successful career in the NHL. Tavares played his minor hockey in the GTHL with the Toronto Marlies. And in the OHL with the Oshawa Generals and now London Knights.
Many of our young athletes at Crossroads Sports Academy will be from Toronto. This will hopefully inspire each of these kids to chase their hockey dreams the way Tavares chased his on his way to the NHL.

Riley Jones Stuntman
I had a chance to meet Riley from Brantford early this year, this kid is an amazing athlete. He is like the “Gretzky” of the “free running”. He has played a stunt doubles for some of the biggest movie stars in the industry. Riley’s brother, mom and dad are also in the stunt business and are the best at it. They too have been stunt doubles for some of the biggest movies stars around. The dedication and commitment they have put into being the best in their business is so evident in the careers they have had to date. Enjoy this video

Every Kid’s Dream – John Tavares/Victor Hedman Interview – TSN Feature
Who will be the number one pick in this years 2009 NHL Draft? John Tavares or Victor Hedman. I have seen Tavares play his minor hockey with the Toronto Marlies and in the OHL with the Oshawa Generals and most recently with the London Knights. I have only seen Hedman on television in World Junior Tournaments.
Whether it will be Tavares or Hedman going first overall, these two young men have obviously worked extremely hard to be where they are today. All I can say is “good luck boys at this Friday’s NHL Entry Draft”. You will both have a long successful career in the NHL.
