Why Did I Never Know Rod Stewart Has A Son Who Is Actually Good And Not Bad At Hockey?
IIHF – World Championship debutant Liam Stewart is proving that he’s more than the son of famous parents with encouraging performances for GB in Belfast.
Great Britain forward Liam Stewart is revelling in his first senior international tournament in Belfast this week – and as well as bringing goals, his presence has added a touch of glamour to the tournament.
As GB warmed up for its game with Estonia on Monday evening, Liam’s mother, supermodel Rachel Hunter, was tweeting her support for the team from the SSE Arena. And she went away with plenty to be proud of after Liam scored the game-breaking goal in a 5-1 home victory that keeps the Brits perfect after two games in in the 2017 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group B.
I like to think there’s not much in that goes on in the hockey world that gets by me. I try my best to keep my ear close to the ground so I don’t miss anything. With that in mind, this completely slipped right by me. Rod Stewart. Yes, this same Rod Stewart from Rod Stewart’s Greatest Hits.
Has a son who not only plays hockey, but is playing for Team Great Britain at the World Championships right now. And usually something like that slipping by me wouldn’t be too much of an issue considering Team GB plays in the B Division of the IIHF Worlds. Which is essentially a glorified Beer League, plus keeping up with the EIHL is pretty much impossible aside from the fights that get picked up by HockeyFights.com. However, taking one quick glance at his hockeydb profile and it appears Liam Stewart played a few seasons in Spokane.
First off, RIP Alaska Aces. Second off, kid was a 50-point scorer in the W. How did I miss this? How come nobody clued me into the fact that one of the greatest song birds in the history of music has a son who dangles his fucking face off? I’m disappointed in myself and I’m disappointed in all of you. Rock star dad, smoke stack mom, and has flow for days.
Blows my mind that I didn’t even know he existed until this afternoon. Blows. My. Mind.
Anyways, enjoy the rest of your miserable rainy Tuesday with the smooth smooth sound of Sir Roderick David Stewart.
