Reply To: Right or Left ??

Hey thanks Tom.

From what I gather (and researched extensively) it is not so much to do with dominant hand (i.e. writing) but probably several factors. We all have a dominant eye and hemisphere in the brain, a dominant foot, and a dominant hand.

But look at a few of the premiere players in the NHL today.

Ovechkin signs autographs with his right hand and shoots right.
Crosby signs right handed & shoots left.
Nash, signs right & shoots right.
Malkin signs right handed & shoots left.
Stamkos, signs right handed & shoots right.
And your boy Heatley, signs right handed & shoots left.

These guys seem to do alright.

So I guess as long as he's comfortable I'll stop worrying.
(But there must be some sort of weird mad science to it, isn't there?)
