Childhood friends often envision scenarios of some day joining the NHL together.
Tyson Galloway and Logan Stankoven of Kamloops lived the dream on Saturday.
“I’m on a high right now,” said Galloway, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound defenceman who toils for the Calgary Hitmen in the WHL. “I’m living on a cloud.”
The Dallas Stars picked Kamloops Blazers’ forward Stankoven in Round 2 (47th overall) and the St. Louis Blues nabbed Galloway in Round 5 (145th overall) of the NHL Draft.
Stankoven and Galloway have been playing with or against each other since they first laced skates in the Kamloops Minor Hockey Association.
