Former Buffalo Sabres and Detroit Red Wings goaltender Roger Crozier died today
at the age of 53. Crozier won the Conn Smythe trophy with Detroit in the
1966 Stanley Cup playoffs, the first player to do so from a losing team.
Crozier played for the Sabres in their first season 1970-71, and also played
for the Washington Capitals, before becoming the Caps G-M in 1981-82.
Crozier was 53 years old, and died of prostate cancer.

A truly sad day for all hockey fans, especially those of goaltenders. Thank
you for the update, Mark...although it's never good to hear this sort of news,
it is appreciated.
