15-year-old goalie off life support

Ian Jenkins of Michigan had a bright future ahead of him in major junior hockey. Drafted two weeks ago by the London Knights, everyone expected he would eventually become the team's No. 1 goaltender.
No longer.
Ian was thrown from the back of a pickup truck near Ann Arbor, hit his head and has now been taken off life support in hospital.
His father issued a detailed statement, reported by Morris Dalla Costa of The London Free Press. On behalf of the family, Joel Jenkins expresses heartfelt appreciation for the concern and sympathy of the hockey community.
