CANADIAN COACH MCCRIMMON AMONG 43 DEAD IN RUSSIAN PLANE CRASH
I found out on Twitter and my immediate reaction was disbelief. Was it somehow April 1st or something? But then I saw some of those names and I just started crying, even though I wasn't a big fan of those players or anything. (I only saw Rachunek's name later, and that hit home a lot more.) I don't even know how I feel. I'm just crying again.
Alex was just talking last week about how the planes in Russia are really horribly maintained because a lot of skilled people left the country and they just don't have enough qualified people to take care of things.
This is horrible. And they were meant to play in the KHL season opener...
