Dwight Knight started to want to play hockey later than most. He actually discovered the game when visiting his grandparents in Norway. When he was about ten or eleven, the neighborhood kids would go out to the frozen Fjords in the dead of winter and would start playing hockey. At the time Dwight did not have any experience skating or any idea of what to do so he would just run on the tip of the skates as that's all he knew. It was difficult and it was a good laugh by everyone but it was a lot of fun for Dwight. When Dwight returned home he poked at the idea with his parents but his Dad knew that Dwight was to take over the family farm.  Dwight was so mesmerized by the sport that it was all he would ever think about. As Dwight grew older these memories would fade into the background and would think about them less and less until he arrived in Canada.
