from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,
It’s been six years.
It was just more than six years ago that planning for a new sports complex and hockey arena in Elmira, Ontario, began. And it was just over six years ago that Dan Snyder was taken away from this world much too early, at the age of 25, in a tragic car accident in Atlanta.
On Sunday, when the Atlanta Thrashers honor their former player by skating at the new Dan Snyder Memorial Arena in his hometown 90 minutes west of Toronto, Graham Snyder will no doubt have a heavy heart, but he will also know that his son will be looking down with a big smile on his face.
After all, this is what Dan wanted, a new arena for Elmira.
