Under construction: Broncos family focused on rebuilding, not sentencing hearing
AIRDRIE, Alta. — The family of injured Humboldt Broncos player Ryan Straschnitzki is focusing its attention closer to home ahead of next week’s sentencing hearing for the truck driver who caused the team’s deadly bus crash.
While many Humboldt players and their families will be in a Melfort, Sask., court on Monday, the Straschnitzkis won’t be.
Instead, their time is being consumed by construction on their home in Airdrie, north of Calgary, so that Straschnitzki, who is paralyzed from the chest down, can get around.
