Sidney Crosby writes message to each Humboldt Broncos bus crash survivor

The accident that killed 15 players and staff members from the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team in Saskatchewan, Canada, last week rocked the sport at just about every level.

Bus travel, after all, is a staple of the game, so pretty much every player who has competed in a road game has spent some time on one.

Often, a lot of time.

That certainly is true of those who reach the NHL, and Penguins players, like those of every team, were predictably shaken by the tragedy last Friday.

Support for the Broncos, their family members and friends, is universal inside their locker room, and Penguins captain Sidney Crosby took that to a higher level after practice Tuesday, when he inscribed photos with a personalized message for each of the survivors.
