Anyone dying that young is tragic, at least he got to do something he loved for a living though.

There was also a death of an Ice Hockey player on Monday.

19yo Alexei Cherepanov who was the top European drafted into the NHL last year by the New York Rangers, although he stayed in Russia playing for Omsk. Apparently he collapsed while sat on the bench during a game and died later in hospital.

RIP to them both.
