Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Mike Babcock was uncharacteristically emotional as he discussed the fatal crash of a bus carrying a Saskatchewan junior hockey team on Friday evening. Fourteen people were killed in the collision between a coach bus carrying the Humboldt Broncos, a Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League team, and a transport truck. "I know that road pretty good," Babcock said of Highway 35, not far from where he grew up. He added that he spoke with a friend of his, "a fireman in Saskatoon," who had coached some of the Broncos players in the past. The collision marks the second time a Saskatchewan team with the name "Broncos" was involved in a fatal highway crash.
