Rising NHL Star, 21, Killed in Motorcycle Accident
The Vancouver Canuck's Luc Bourdon, a rising defensive star for the NHL team, was killed earlier today in a motorcycle accident in New Brunswick, Canada.
Bourdon was driving his motorcycle on the road between Lameque and Shippigan, his hometown, when his motorcycle collided with a transport truck.
The NHL, currently in the midst of the Stanley Cup Finals, is deeply saddened. Bourdon was the Canucks' first round draft pick in the 2005 amateur draft and the 10th pick overall. He had helped Canada win World Junior Championships in 2006 and 2007 and was fast becoming a star for the Canucks as a two-way defenseman--one who is skilled both offensively and defensively.
