This video shows you luc doing what he loved to. These clips only show you some of the great things Luc did but I wanted to pay my respects to him and this is how i did it. We will never know what could have been, but we can celebrate what we saw in one hell of a hockey player and one great young man.

Bourdon was killed instantly in a motorcycle collision in Lamèque, New Brunswick,[6] near his hometown of Shippagan, on May 29, 2008, when he hit a tractor-trailer after losing control of his bike and crossing the center line.[7][8] Environment Canada showed winds gusting to more than 50 km/h in the area at the time of the accident. The RCMP stated that Bourdon's inexperience with motorcycles may have been a factor in the crash.[9]

Bourdon's agent, Kent Hughes, stated that he never knew about his client's new hobby (motorcycles). "I had no idea," he explained to CKNW in Vancouver. "Another client of ours, Kris Letang, said Luc let him know he was riding his dad's motorcycle with some friends a week or two ago. I have since been told - though I don't know - that he actually bought a motorcycle two days ago".[10] Maryse Bourdon, Luc's step-mother, said he had purchased the motorcycle about three weeks ago.[8] Letang, Bourdon's close friend and former roommate from junior hockey, planned to buy a motorcycle after Bourdon told him about his; since the crash, he has decided against it. A moment of silence was observed in Bourdon's honor prior to game four of the 2008 Stanley Cup Final in Pittsburgh between the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins.

Luc Bourdon (February 16, 1987 -- May 29, 2008) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman who played interchangeably for the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League (NHL) and their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Manitoba Moose.

  • R.I.P.! Wish you could being suiting up for the boys on Wednesday! Be our 7th man!

  • @r71cuda He made one mistake. He showed remorse for what he did! People need to get over shit. He was one hell of a power forward and still can be. The Game is an emotional one, we don't know what Moore did say or do to provoke it. Naslund was the Captain and everyone would of made that hit with how it was going.

  • You should turn on comments for your pathetic Bertuzzi video. He is a thug, not an enforcer in hockey. True enforcers face their opponents, they don't sucker punch them and ride them to the ice.

    Pathetic!!!

    R.I.P. DEREK BOOGAARD!
