I think it's extremely challenging to move kids away. The last two years of high school are difficult for an adolescent who is, as I mentioned earlier, trying to establish their identity, place, friendships and what they may or may not be doing after the age of 18.
The situation is very difficult because the sport itself is different from, say, swimming, archery, tae kwon do, gymnastics or whatever the case is. I can't think of a different sport—correct me if I'm wrong—where you are playing on a team with players who are one step from the NHL or actually signed in the NHL, or one year away from playing in adult recreation leagues perhaps, at the age of 21.
It's very difficult for the players to be in that situation where they are very close to pursuing dreams, but also very close to seeing that the doors are closing in that respect.
Living in the billet situation without the day-to-day with their families is challenging. However, they are willing to do it. My own children did it. It's a risk that many want to take.
