A lot of great players, a very good team, one of the best teams in KHL league. They were supposed to be champions this year, but this thing happens in the first day of the new season. The whole team died, each of them was on a plane which is quite rare. But I guess it had to be this way so that they are all together in heaven, probably playing hockey right now.
A lot of plane crashes in Russia lately, almost everyday I read news about a plane crash in Russia.
Our whole country was shocked when this happened because there was also a very, very great player from Latvia. One of the biggest tragedies for our country lately, all news portals are only talking about this, we are huge hockey fans, so it's painful for us to loose such a player, those who don't watch or play ice hockey, will never understand it why.
Anyway...
R.I.P. Lokomotiv team and especially Karlis Skrastins, best defense man from Latvia of all time.
