The Jeffrey Pines Legacy Continues

[Thunder 1,074]

Jeffrey Pines, @rory, likes to tell people that his son Jeffrey Pines Jr, @dylanjj37, wore skates before wearing baby shoes, and this is true.  Jeffrey Jr was meant to play in the VHL, and that moment has come true.  The giant of a goalie, standing at 6’8” has signed with the Miami Marauders.  The senior Pines did not hide the fact that he was hoping for his son to join Mexico City like his dad, but nevertheless he is proud of his son.

 

Jeffrey Jr grew up playing hockey with his father in the back yard and enjoyed the time spent together.  It was the beginning of the “Dream Team” according to Pines Sr.  Jr went to every hockey game he could pass the time in the locker room and watch his all-star father crush opponents and protect his goalie.  Every Wolves player enjoyed the presence of the younger Pines.

 

Jeffrey Sr developed his son to play any position and in the end it was the net minder position that Jeffrey Jr preferred to play.  In fact, in season 80 of the VHL, Jeffrey Jr stepped onto the Vancouver ice during a pregame warmup and took some shots in the net.  It wasn’t until his father stepped on the ice that he noticed his 12 year old son playing against the pros.  At the time, Jeffrey Jr was 6’03” and could measure up to any VHL goalie.  Jeffrey Sr and the Vancouver Wolves went on to win the Victory Cup and the Continental Cup, and Jeffrey Pines Jr was allowed to raise the cup with the team.
