Dylan starting playing with a hockey stick and puck at age 3.   While at a tournament in Colorado Springs, Co he dropped his plastic hockey stick down the elevator shaft which we thought was lost but hotel management was able to retrieve it.   He enjoyed going to his older brothers hockey games and would bring that plastic hockey stick and puck and play with anyone and everyone while the games were going on.  He began playing himself at age 5 at the Des Moines Ice Arena.  He was playing on travel teams for the Des Moines Buc's at age 6.
