About Grant »

Been invoved in hockey and soccer since I was 4. Trained with pro goalkeepers from Division I in England and played for Dalhousie University in Halifax from 1997-2001 (2-time CIAU Finals). With respect to hockey, grew up playing for Hillcrest Summits AA in the MTHL in Toronto until minor midget and then played with the Mississauga Terriers in midget and won the Ontario Provincial Championships (2nd in team scoring and a managed a natural hat-trick to win the provincial finals). Awarded athlete of the year at Crescent School in my final year of high school. Currently I am looking to find a goalie gig with a high level soccer team in the city and play organized hockey in Toronto with the Fatcats (www.fatcatshockey.com) in the ASHL.
I have been watching and playing sports since I can remember, aside from the sports I play I am an avid fan of NCAA b-ball, football, the NBA and several other sports as well.

Exclusively for you. You would not want to miss this one out.
It was due 2 days ago, but finally I finished it.
If you get a chance, please share your thoughts on my new article. I'd appreciate your take.

Hey Grant,
The US Open Draw is released. I analyzed the Men's draw, in addition to the Top Ten players' form and recent performance, and made some projection in an unconventional way.
Check it out. I am sure you'll like it.
Thank you so much,

Hey I wrote an article on the current state of NHL writers on Bleacher Report and I think it's an important read to members of the community. Take a look when you get a chance. Thanks.
