the dub's darkest days

Very interesting, if somewhat chilling, article about Swift Current on ESPN.com today. Covers the bus crash, Graham James & Sheldon Kennedy, and what the writer describes as the town 'turning its back' on the current team and the memory of the 4 killed players. Sakic has some typically bland quotes (Quoteless Joe!) and apparently only agreed to be interviewed if he wasn't asked about the crash itself. Current players say they still don't feel comfortable in the town because of the team's past. Bunch of photos that I hadn't seen before (like the crashed bus). Well worth the read.
