Hope he recovers quickly, I do remember watching him play.  He seems like a really nice guy.
Perhaps 1 too many...?

That SUCKS!!!!


Erk was, and still is a blue collar, hard working, certified BADASS!  Also a hell of a nice abs quiet guy in person, as well as an underrated D.

Nice quality reporting:


"John Erskine was severely injured"


"The driver of the pickup was arrested at the scene and transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries"


severely injured but not life threatening....okay.


Hope the severe injuries and not too severe.  Always liked big John on the Caps.  He had that edge a quality D-man is supposed too.
