Update from NHL.com, good to see guys volunteering to join the team to keep the game alive.

"In the wake of Wednesday's tragedy involving Lokomotiv's team plane crashing and the death of 43 people, the KHL will suspend play until Sept. 13.

There are reports that the league could hold a draft where 1-2 players from each team will be selected to help form a new Lokomotiv team. It has also been reported that about 30-40 players have already volunteered to play for Lokomotiv this season."



Yeah, this is very sad. And Stefan Liv was one of Sweden's top goalies... T_T



Extremely sad.

Two ex-Blackhawks (my favorite team) on the plane.

My heart goes out to the victims and the victims friends and families.
