Better with age

At the HSBC arena there has been the same name yelled for the last twenty years, Johnny Tavares. He has been a staple on the team as long as I have walked this earth. Johnny is already the all time leading scorer in the NLL (National Lacrosse League) and just scored his 700th goal. Johnny has been a star in the league and all the coaches know it. When the record was set both coaches praised Johnny. They said he is one of the smartest players in the game and deserves everything that he has accomplished. Johnny after the game was very humble about the accomplishment. " It would of meant nothing to me if my team did not get the win". I have been spoiled by growing up in Buffalo and watching this great player play my whole life. He is one of the most respected players in the league and most intelligent. It is nice to watch someone master their sport week in and week out.
