Black armbands, moment of silence for Humboldt Broncos bus crash victims at Quebec hockey game

A moment of silence fell over the arena at Sunday's Quebec Major Junior Hockey League playoff game to honour the Humboldt Broncos bus crash victims.

While Moncton Wildcats and Blainville-Boisbriand Armada players stood in a circle on the ice ahead of the game in Boisbriand, just north of Laval, some members of the crowd wore black armbands for the 15 players who were killed in Friday's bus crash.

His son has been playing since he was threeand moved away at 16 for hockey.

Sylvestre said he worries because of all the time his son spends on the road in difficult driving conditions during the Canadianwinter.

"Our kids, playing junior hockey spend a lot of time travelling, on buses, and you always worry," he said.

"To see stuff like that, it's heartbreaking for a parent."

Sunday night, a public vigil in Humboldt, Sask., took place at the Elgar Petersen Arena, home of the Broncos junior league hockey team.
