Written Option 2:
In his young career, there isn't much for a documentary to really capture, but an early outing for Windsor would look at the low expectations he received as the latest in a line of 'legacy players' in the shadow of Winston Windsor. Will Windsor earned notoriety at the junior level but suffered injuries and couldn't make it to the SHL, while Warwick Windsor wasn't even playable in juniors. Weston Windsor has, so far, proven to be better than the latter of his brothers, but the quest to actually live up to his father's legacy is going to be long and arduous. It was most likely a combination of his coaching staff in Newfoundland that helped guide him to succeed as a waiver pick-up as well as, oddly enough, professional scouts who tried to help explain what he was missing to make it at the SHL level. Perhaps the biggest step he's taken recently was his move to defense, influenced heavily by conversations with SHL teams -- but his all-offense mindset honestly comes from his father, who himself preferred a high-octane, passing game. Weston already has a better shot than him, but with the way the game is played today, there aren't many goals on his highlight reel: just a series of strong passing plays that draw obvious comparisons. |
