BECKET, Mass. – Three people were seriously injured when a bus carrying a minor league hockey team rolled on its side on Interstate 90 westbound in western Massachusetts early Thursday morning, state police say. [http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/local/BO105114/](http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/local/BO105114/) they haven’t released any names but hopefully everyone is alright! a buffalo native Dave Leggio, I don’t know him well but I coached a camp with him over summer, plays for their ECHL affiliate the florida everblades. hopefully noone is seriously injured, and it would be cool if he got called up for a few more games (checking his stats he only has 1 AHL game so far). hope everyone is alright ---

That was most def one of the best games I have ever been to. I was expecting some fights but damn, nothing like that. Those refs sucked ass as well. Fuck Comboy. he’s an asshole. Did he get hurt in the crash? ---

> [@96civicexrican](#): > > That ref sucked ass as well. Fixed it for you. I think the fact that there is only one ref in AHL games and that the ref let the game get out of control is what lead to all the fights. Then he just gave everyone 10 minute misconduct penalties if they looked at each other funny.
