BUFFALO
Authentic Jordan Eberle Jersey , N.Y. (AP) As the son of a journeyman hockey player and eventual coach, Buffalo Sabres newly acquired forward Tage Thompson
became accustomed to never staying put in one place for too long.”I’m not sure
the amount of states I’ve lived in,” Thompson said Monday, in recalling how he
attended nine schools by the time he began his junior year at a high school in
Michigan.”Almost a new school every year,” he added. ”So, I’ve moved around
quite a bit.”His father is Brent Thompson, who is the coach of Bridgeport in the
American Hockey League. His career included numerous stops from playing for the
AHL’s Hershey Bears in Pennsylvania to coaching the ECHL’s Alaska Aces.It’s been
a similar life of travel for the 20-year-old Thompson in the two years since
being selected by the Blues in the first round of the draft following his
freshman college year at UConn.Upon splitting last season between St. Louis and
the Blues’ AHL Affiliate in San Antonio, Texas, Thompson is headed to Buffalo.
He was acquired along with two veteran teammates and two draft picks on Sunday,
in a deal that sent center Ryan O’Reilly to St. Louis.Perhaps, now, Thompson can
finally get a chance to settle down.”I feel like I’ve been living out of a
suitcase, honestly
