Russia mourns hockey players killed in plane crash

A day after a plane crash outside the Russian city of Yaroslavl killed dozens of Russian and international hockey players, hundreds of residents and supporters gathered Thursday at the arena where the Yaroslavl Lokomotiv hockey club played to commemorate those lost. Russian TV showed mountains of flowers, scarves, flags and other items bearing the team's insignia being laid in front of the stadium in Yaroslavl, a city 155 miles northeast of Moscow. Candles were lit and many people were crying. Churches across the city held memorial services, with many fans attending dressed in Lokomotiv jerseys. I think thats really sad... that a whole hockey team deid in a plane crash:(!!!!!! Any Comments???

Heard about this. 43 people were on the plane. Only two of them survived the crash. It's amazing how quickly things can change. I hope something like this won't happen again.
