1 Year since Darkest day in Ice Hockey history


On September 7, 2011, the Lokomotiv club was to travel to Minsk for their first game of the 2011–12 KHL season when the airplane they were in caught fire and crashed shortly after take-off, from Tunoshna Airport. Almost the entire team of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl was killed. Of the 45 passengers, only a flight attendant survived in one of the deadliest aviation accidents in the history of sports. The Opening Cup game in Ufa, which was already under way when news of the disaster arrived, was abandoned and the start of the season postponed by 5 days by the tragedy which touched hockey fans around the world. Yaroslav Lokomotiv was given a one-year hiatus from the KHL to rebuild its program. The team this month returned to compete in Russia's top league with a remade roster featuring players promoted from the club's farm team, as well several imports from North American hockey circles.

Now, Sept. 7 will live in infamy for hockey fans around the world.
They will never be forgotten
