A bus carrying junior hockey players belonging to the Humboldt Broncos team in Canada was involved in a gruesome crash with a tractor trailer leaving 15 dead and 14 injured with 3 in a serious condition.  The bus was carrying the team for a playoff to be held at the town Nipawin. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudea has stated “I cannot imagine what these parents are going through, and my heart goes out to everyone affected by this tragedy, in Humboldt community and beyond,”.

The collision took place on Highway 35 north of Tisdale and those killed have been identified as Broncos head coach Darcy Haugan, team captain Logan Schatz and radio announcer Tyler Bieber.  The hockey crazed town which was looking forward for the game have now gone in to grieving as the parents arrive to the shocking scenes.
