We're all just floored by the death of Abakar Kazbekov. I've talked to some who were close to him today. There really are no words. He was a true gentleman. Came to Canada with no English 3 years ago and was helping me with translation this season.

But you participated anyway. In the middle of a pandemic. If your trust in a coach goes against your gut instinct, something is wrong.
