September 17, 2011 Leave a Comment
Hockey training camps have started across the NHL but Flyers camp commenced with a heavy heart this year. Last week, the franchise lost one of its most recognizable faces from the 1980s when Brad McCrimmon was killed in a tragic Russian plane crash.
McCrimmon was killed along with the team he just agreed to coach this season in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), Lokomotiv, when the team plane crashed in Russia.
The defenseman was one of the leaders of some rugged and accomplished Flyers teams in the 1980s, twice going to the Stanley Cup Finals versus Edmonton Oilers.
