I'm not sure when you can start calling a family a dynasty, but with Philipp Winter being a 3rd generation SHL player, the Winter's are sure getting close to being one. They are a hockey family for sure and it didn't really come as a surprise to anyone that Philipp followed into the footsteps of his grandfather David and his dad Nicolas. From an early age he was surrounded by hockey players and hockey people, he learned to skate when he could barely even walk and was hitting pucks in his backyard or even the house for as long as he can remember. It's definitely fair to say that he had it easier than most and it would be tempting to argue that maybe he isn't as talented as some of the other people in the league and just had a very comfy road to the SHL, but the teammates he has had along the way would deny that and they would say that he has some of the best dedication and workmanship that they've ever seen.
