This past weekend a hockey tournament was being hosted in Quebec, and ended in a tragic way.
During a tournament being held at Martin-Bergeron Park in Trois-Rivieres, 21-year old goaltender Zachary Bourassa passed away during a hockey game cardiac arrest.
In a statement on social media following Bourassa's passing, his family clarified that the passing had nothing to do with playing hockey.
In a sad statement on Facebook, his mother shared that he had passed away doing what he loved to do most, play hockey.
The hockey community has come together once again after his passing and have started to leave flowers, hockey sticks and other memorabilia outside to remember him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Bourassa family, and friends during this tough time.
May Zachary Rest in Peace.
