Tragic news as hockey player passes away at 33-years-old
Today tragic news emerged out of Canada that veteran ice hockey player Mike Hammond was killed in a car accident last night.
According to sources the accident happened in Shawnigan, though full details have not been confirmed at this time.
Hammond had a passion for hockey and dreamed of playing in the NHL. When that didn't work out Hammond took his passion overseas and carved out a very European hockey career. This morning Hammond's team confirmed his death in a statement on their website, sharing that the club is devastated.
Our thoughts too are with all his former team-mates and everyone at the club is thinking of Hammy and his family right now.
Rest in peace Mike - you will never be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mike's family and friends in this difficult time.
