Immediately thought of @Buccigross when I saw this awful news. Sorry for your loss. You guys together on hockey were the absolute best. Barry was 1 of 1. RIP.

Barry gave his life to hockey and some of his ESPN family, like me, learned of his shocking death today while at a hockey rink in Las Vegas preparing for the upcoming season. Chilling and fitting--the rink was Barry's home. A more beloved ESPN institution there has not been. We love you, Barry. Forever.
