That is absolutely wild. Two young guys from Saskatchewan end up playing professional baseball in the US South as teenagers, then end up winning 4 Stanley Cups together.
Justin Bourne from Sportsnet (Bob’s son) is married to Clark’s daughter and they have a couple of kids or at least one. They must be devastated.

Man this sucks, I really feel for them.
