A Loss for the Hockey World

Alexei Cherepanov, the New York Rangers’ first round draft pick (17th overall) in 2007 died earlier today after suffering a heart attack on the bench of his team’s game in the Russian KHL. Cherepanov was the Rangers top prospect and was supposed to develop into a star in the NHL. It is a tragedy for the hockey world regardless of what team you support.
