A feel-good story and showcase of true resilience ❤️🚨
Colin Dorgan, whose mother, brother, and grandfather passed away in the tragic shooting at Lynch Arena on February 16, was the double-overtime hero for Blackstone Valley in the semifinals.
Dorgan’s overtime goal sends Blackstone Valley to the Rhode Island Division 2 High School championship game.
During the regular season Dorgan only scored 1 goal in 16 games. He now has 3 goals in 3 playoff games. Incredible.

I am sorry to hear about the passing of former forward 🇨🇦Troy Murray at the age of 63, after a five-year fight against cancer. 💜
Murray was most notably the captain for Canada 🇨🇦 when they won their first ever gold medal at the World Junior Championship in 1982. He scored 8 (4+4) points in 7 games and later represented the men’s team at the 1987 World Championship.
After that, Murray went on to score 627 (247+380) points in 1,028 career games in the NHL with the Chicago Blackhawks 🇺🇸, Winnipeg Jets 🇨🇦, Ottawa Senators 🇨🇦, Pittsburgh Penguins 🇺🇸, and Colorado Avalanche 🇺🇸 — where he won a Stanley Cup in 1996.
