Who will go farther, the kid who has talent in bantams or the kid in bantams with not much talent but great work ethic and works hard at every practice?

Depends.... you don't mention how hard or not hard the kid with talent works. you also haven't qualified how "little" talent the other kid has..... Given equal talent hard work always trumps, but there are exceptions to every rule, and I also believe a kid who is still considered very talented in bantams probably got there and IS talented because he/she worked hard... You can't do anything about your height and I believe some people have more god given athleticism than others but most hockey skills come from hard work to begin with
