Memorial service for Russia's Lokomotiv hockey team

[BlueChiaro]

This is the the thirty minute memorial service which took place instead of the scheduled hockey game in Minsk. You don't need to understand a word of Russian to be moved by this fine tribute to the team which was lost in Wednesday's plane crash.

The crash has hit the Red Wings pretty hard as two who died were with Detroit last year. Brad McCrimmon, was an assistant and former player, while Ruslan Salei was a veteran defenseman.

Thanks for posting.

I also heard that two of the coaches were former members of our Phoenix Coyotes team. Very sad indeed.
