Delainey’s speed unparalleled
While growing up in Edam, Sask., Reed Delainey’s father Brent was often away for work.
The result for Delainey was simply more time spent with his grandparents, Pat and Elaine.
“[My grandfather] was a big influence on me,” Delainey, now 20 and in his fourth season with the North Stars, said. “He taught me a lot of life lessons growing up. My dad was away for work most of the time so he was almost another father for me.”
The two still go golfing about twice a week in the summertime.
