Zane is an awesome player I loved him last year this year I met him he sat at our table for season ticket holders and we talked now I am a big fan of his good luck in your journey young man
What a beautiful story of strong family love and support. Makes me proud to know you Azim and family. Wishing Zayne nothing but the absolute best!! Cheering you on - always. Val :)
Just found out about this guy today through instagram. Crazy combination of ethnicity. Almost unheard of. However, makes sense only in Canada. Will be cheering him on from afar
I love this story. I will be interested in where he goes. I’m a Blue Jackets fan and I know they won’t draft him, but I really like his story. Interested to see if he has a mean streak to his game also.
Now hockey is a conservative sport to put it in nice terms but we all know what that really means. This is a beautiful story that the NHL needs to promote if it is serious about inclusivity.
That sounds like the perspective of someone who's not involved in hockey. Hockey is not just what you read in the news... there are a lot of people at every level working towards a sport that is accessible to everyone. If you are involved in hockey and feel that way, perhaps you need to look in the mirror or at the people involved in your local hockey community and take action to change that.
I grew up in downtown Toronto......some of the most talented players I played with and saw play were ethnic kids.....St. Jamestown & Regent Park could've pumped out a ton of pros if it wasn't for other challenging circumstances. Good on Zayne's parents for their hard work, struggle, and providing the best for their kids!
