An official listing of the passengers on board the flight that killed nearly the entire KHL club Lokomotiv Yaroslavl (team logo on right) has been released. Investigation into the flight and aircraft is being conducted, and this story will play itself out in the coming weeks and months. The KHL will resume action again on Thursday with the three remaining scheduled games, and a decision will have to be made as to how to proceed further in the season. For now, though, we can only mourn the losses and hope for the best from the two survivors.
