Born in Manitoba Canada, 2006 lived a very heart driven kid with one dream in mind, to play hockey. Ever since Eugene could remember he loved hockey, he was drawn to it since he was just able to walk. Eugene was born into a wealthy family but didn't give him much help at all because his family Wasn’t supportive of his dream and thought hockey was just a waste of time but that never stopped Eugene from playing the sport he loved most. Growing up in his early years Eugene played house league from 6 years old all the way up to 11 but when he turned 12 he realized he wanted more. Lucky for him he got his chance when he found a new team he wanted to play for, the Manitoba moose. This was only a single A team, but that didn't bring down Eugene because all he was focused on was getting better. The day of the tryouts Eugene was feeling the most nervous he has ever felt but that didn't stop him from shocking the coaches with his gem like talent. Eugene made the final roster as a first line LW and shortly after they had their first couple practices. Eugene finished his first season of rep hockey with 89 points in 51 games and ended up ranking 1st out of everyone in his league. This was good enough to get higher level coaches to recognize him and he even got asked by the Manitoba triple AAA coach to sign up for the tryout. Eugene ended up making the roster as a 2nd line LW after shocking the coaches for how good he was for only playing single A for one year. In Eugene's second season playing rep hockey he put up 54 points in 53 games which ended up getting him a lot more notice around the league. After making the team once again Eugene was excited as ever and to top all of that off he made the first line just before the season started. This was Eugene's chance to shine, to finally prove the doubters wrong, if Eugene does good this season he could have a real shot at making it pro. With everything on the line Eugene steps it up and starts training over the off season, he ends up getting so good that he gets chosen by the coaches to be the captain of the Manitoba moose in the upcoming season. Shortly after the coaches call him into their office and explain to him “A good ship always relies on the captain to lead them to their destination”. This quote gave Eugene the confidence to become the leader he was always meant to be and he said to the coach just before the season that  he was going to lead them to the championship. Eugene ended up leading his team to finish 1st place in standings going 43-7-3 and Eugene finished with 84 points in 53 games finishing top 3 for points in the league. This was good enough to win Eugene the league MVP and this caught the attention of many CHL scouts around the area and this drew a lot of attention to Eugene which left people wondering who this kid is and will he be a star? Eugene ended up having a lot of looks at him and a lot of teams found him good, especially the Saskatoon Blades. Eugene ended up being taken with the 5th overall pick by the Saskatoon Blades and he now had to take a huge leap of faith and step up his game. This didn't scare Eugene, he was ready and he felt that he could take on anything which he did. After getting towards the end of the season he was finishing the season with a record finish sitting at 70 points in 60 games as a first year however his amazing run would end with tragedy as in the second last game of the regular season Eugene took an injury that would halt his career in a pretty bad way. Eugene ended up suffering an injury that put him out for the playoffs of that season and also the whole next season. This meant that Eugene was gonna have to push if he wanted to reach that next level because that injury really brought his run down and some had him so low they think he might not be drafted. For Eugene's 3rd season he put up a boat load of numbers going for 110 points in 54 games and this did rank him higher some still speculated if he was 100% healthy or if this was a recurring problem for the future. With a lot of hope in Eugene he was nervous as ever knowing that this could be the deciding factor for his career and his future. After sitting through 5 rounds, just before the round ended the Las Vegas Aces were on the clock and they had one player in mind Eugene Ryanheart. From that day forward Eugene knew he had to start working and he must stay focused and prove everyone wrong about him and that he isn't just some injury prone player and that he really is good. Currently Eugene has just finished his first season with Las Vegas and finished with some pretty good numbers for a rookie finishing with 47 points in 72 games.
