Nice Blackeye for association!
Blackeye?
Edina is a suburb of about 45,000. I don't think the population has changed much in 35 years. The hockey association uses volunteer assistant coaches. Some of the most qualified volunteers - like virtually everyone else on Planet Earth - procreate. (Other species do this too, so while you're at it, let's single out bats in Peru.)
The offspring of the Bantam Head and Assistant Coaches are among the stronger players in the Twin Cities. Genetics may play a role, as we're talking about one father that represented USA Hockey in international competition and another that was an elite NHL player.
Political would be if these kids were on the Pee Wee team and didn't deserve to be.
Nobody's ever made that argument before, but that doesn't make you wrong I guess.
Be kind. Rewind.
