Youth from La Loche meet Bryan Trottier at Saskatoon Blades game

A group of youngsters from La Loche, Sask., were greeted with a thunderous standing ovation at a Saskatoon Blades hockey game Saturday night where they were special guests of the club.

The youths were in the city for a few days to take in the hockey game. They also went bowling, swimming and went to a movie (the new Zoolander film) — all part of a gesture to help the northern Saskatchewan community that suffered multiple deaths from a shooting in January.

"It's the first time they've been out of the community since the tragic shootings," Steve Hogle, president of the WHL club, said.
