Pens will probably still be rebulding and will draft him first overall in 2014.

Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, Hawryluk at center? Unstoppable.

Too bad a name like Hawryluk precludes him from ever being a star.

If only he was a Smith. No...wait...let's change it to "Smyth" it sounds so much more exotic...

Too bad your eligibilty for atom hockey had expired 10 years prior.

Not really, I'm still bantam (10 - 14 ). The extra 8 inches, I'm a ****ing Eric Lindros, I skate right through everyone.

9 years old? Angela James was a phenom at 9 years old too, yet never made the NHL(Altho she was very good on the women's team)

What next, we find out Ilya Kovalchuk's 2 month old daughter is teething on hockey sticks at a one year old level? :dunno:

Just hope he doesn't hurt his arm throwing too many curveballs...

I was thinking the complete opposite. We need more pitching talent in this country than we do another hockey player. Keep him out of hockey, we can't risk any shoulder injuries.

How fast is a normal ball in base ball at his age? I've got no idea, but I Know that I can't through that fast, but I've got relly weak arms...

we sure could use the kid in the world base ball clasic coming up in march. We need pitching cause we dont have much pitching especialy if we want to compete againts a country like the dominican republic.

I mean I hope we dont have to face them.

I don't know, but I'm 19 and I can only throw at 68 mph. (I stopped playing baseball competively when I was 13 though, maybe (probably) I would throw faster now if I would've kept playing)

So yeah, 58mph is VERY fast for a 9 year-old.. lol

Arm strength isn't everything. For my size and gender, I 've got very good arm strength , but cannot throw to save my life.
