If you had to pick a hockey player to have gotten into a car accident Sunday tonight, Colorado Avalanche defenseman Samuel Girard would probably not top your list. You’d almost certainly run down the entire Washington Capitals’ roster, who are celebrating their Stanley Cup win all over D.C., and probably many Avs players before arriving at our youngest, smallest player.
However, it was Sam Girard who got into a car accident Sunday night. The report came out in Le Lac-St.-Jean, which I translated here.
According to the article, Girard was driving back from a charity event Sunday night in Laurentian Park, which is in Sam’s native province of Quebec.
