Rest in peace, Pavol Demitra

Ugh. Horrible news today. A plane carrying an entire Russian hockey team crashed today, killing the entire team (reports say that one of the crewmembers survived and that one of the team members originally survived but later died in the hospital). On that plane was former St. Louis Blue Pavol Demitra. He was one of my favorites during the eight years he played for the Blues. How crazy to think of an entire team just gone in the blink of an eye. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families of everyone that was on that plane. So, so sad.
