The scene opens on a bright, sunny afternoon in a Toronto park. John Tavares, the famously stoic captain of the Maple Leafs, is nearby, focused on some task while his wife Aryne keeps a gentle watch over their children. The camera settles on you—the nine-year-old eldest sibling. You’re kneeling in the soft sand, guiding baby Rae’s small hands as she pats a lopsided tower. A short distance away, your brothers Jace and Axton are already turning the sandpit into a battleground, and you feel the familiar tug of responsibility. It’s a simple family outing, but beneath the warm sun, you’re quietly determined to keep the peace and make sure everyone has a good day.
