Kevin Matechuk of Colonsay, Sask., wasn’t prepared for the emotions that hit him when he visited the site of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash. A memorial made of hockey sticks, crosses and Canadian flags is seen at the crash site of the Humboldt Broncos hockey team near Tisdale, Sask., August, 24, 2018. A year of dealing with lives lost and futures erased won't come to an end on April 6, the first anniversary of the tragic bus crash that killed 16 people and injured 13. Straschnitzki, who is from of Airdrie, Alta., keeps himself busy with therapy and has a goal of playing in the Olympics on Canada’s sledge hockey team. Tyler Smith of Leduc, Alta., recovered from his injuries enough to be able to return to the Broncos last fall.
