A sad day in the world of hockey

[mike]

KHL Lokomotiv suffered a devastating loss today when a plane carrying the team crashed shortly after take-off in Yaroslavl, Russia. My thoughts go out to friends and family of those lost.

this is the reason why i'm sad for almost 2 hours :(

i hate how the world lets the worst people live until they are 80 and over and the talents die so young. be it sporstmen musicians actors or anybody doing something good

I'm from slovakia and ice hokey has been my favorite sport and i watched every single world's championship since 5 years ago. Demitra was and i think he will stay as one of my favorite players

R.I.P.

these guys were flying to my home town (Minsk)
they had 3 Belarusian hockey players on board. all of them died.
that's the farewell ceremony in Minsk, instead of the match

A beautiful ceremony. I got a little choked up as well.

It made me think about Lech Kaczynski’s for some reason.
