Just an article about Robertson missing Thanksgiving this year that contained this tidbit which, if I knew before I'd forgotten:

It's particularly difficult today. Nick is the family's miracle baby after being born three months premature and getting saved by a do-or-die shot that allowed oxygen to reach his brain and lungs. He arrived on Sept. 11, 2001 but didn't leave hospital until more than two months later -- coming home for the first time on U.S. Thanksgiving.

I was in high school when Nick Robertson was born.

It was my first day of undergrad.

I was in St.Thomas getting ready to work in the USVI, I was 46, got trapped on the island because of the shutdown of US Airspace, had to take a ferry to Tortola and fly back to St.Maarten from there.

It was my first day of undergrad.

I had just started 2nd year.

I think he's on the outside looking in at this point.

And if some way he can play in the AHL, that would be ideal.

I'm older than most of you idiots, I was just getting ready to leave for work when a friend called and told me to turn on the TV.

The strange thing about that morning is that I never turn on the TV in my hotel room before work,as I don't want to be distracted, but for some reason I turned on CNN that morning, I was shaving when I heard the report about a small plane hitting the first tower.  I came out to have look at the tube and I said that was no small plane, but a big passenger jet,  I had a terrible feeling and called my wife.  She turned on her TV just before the 2nd plane went in.  Of course everyone shouted "Oh my God".

If the OHL season is cancelled for some reason, do they dispense with the rule and let him (and all other qualified players) be loaned to the AHL?

I don't even think that's a question; they wouldn't be able to enforce that agreement.
