Adam Foote’s two sons, Callan and Nolan, were drafted by major-junior’s Kelowna Rockets, and Cal sign with the Western Hockey League team on Monday. He was also considering the University of Denver. Adam Foote and Pioneers coach Jim Montgomery are close friends.
Cal, 16, is a great-skating defenseman. He is close to 6-foot-5 and wears a size 14 skate, and eligible for the 2017 NHL draft. He played for the U16 (National) Colorado Thunderbirds this season. Nolan Foote, who was drafted by Kelowna last week, played for the U14 Thunderbirds, in which his dad was head coach.
