Bad news from Europe. RIP Petr.

My overriding memory of Klima was him and Probert at Goose Loonies in Edmonton. Does that place still exist?

Great mullet and it went perfectly with the JOFA helmet. Scored 40 and 30 6 times.

RIP

If memory serves, one night on Coach's Corner, Don Cherry said, "Now I never said I hated Klima,, I just said I hated his helmet"

58 is way too young as I'm right there in the ballpark.

Indeed. Id be moldering for a long time if I checked out at that age. You know Cherry hated anyone except WASP Canadian boys.
