I don't have kids myself and despite living in Finland I only played hockey for fun with friends, and not for any team, so I don't have any experience of how it works out when the kids are supposed to start growing into their positions.
I'd assume just about every kid would like to be a forward, and then there are a few who think goalies look cool, but what about the defensive position?
Am I wrongly assuming that it isn't very easy to actually get a kid with defensive talents to play that position, even if they would get considerably much more time on the ice?
