Condolences to Steve and the entire Yzerman family.

I'm from Ottawa and one of the reasons I chose Steve as my favourite player is because he grew up here.

  1. This happened a few days ago and we didn’t hear anything from the team. Yzerman is so stoic.

  2. TIL that Yzerman is Carpatho-Rusyn Ukrainian through his mother (-sko name). Probably Hutsul or Boyko. Condolences to the Yzerman family! Vichnaya pamyat.

  3. The obit described him as, among other things,

    > [a] quiet cheerleader for various endeavours, sporting and otherwise.

    Modesty and deflection runs in the family. Requiescat in Pace, Ronald.

  4. >He will be missed by family dogs everywhere, many of whom benefitted from his generous nature at the dinner table.

    Respect king

  5. The man who gave us the man who gave us the Yzerplan

    By the way, i had no idea Steve was basically European!
