Thoughts and prayers go out to the Miami hockey family on this tragic loss.

Also, be sure to read the attached article on Burke coming out to his father. As much as I hate Miami and Enrico Blasi, I was impressed with how they handled Burke's announcement.

My thoughts and Prayers go out to the Burkes and to The Redhawk family. I heard about his passing on the Redwings telecast yesterday. Brendan seemed like an amazing person whose strength of character and bravery will live on in the hearts and minds of all who met him. With Miami coming to BG this upcoming weekend, I wish them well as they continue to deal with Brendan's passing...HOWEVER, not 2 W's
GO FALCONS!

That's such a sad story. I'm not a fan of Brian Burke or Miami University but Brendan seemed like a good kid who had a great life ahead of him.

I agree and that's why this is so sad. As a parent of two young drivers, it is just terrifying to think about!

You can say what you want about Miami Hockey (and i'll probably agree), but Coach Blasi is a great guy and is the reason for their success.
RIP young Redhawk...

was watching the Maple Leafs on TV this weekend and they had a moments silence before the National Anthem for this young man. . . . didn't realize the connection.
prayers to the family
as a side note the 'color man' in the TV booth was Gary Galley (assume he's our BG boy)?
