The Fan 590 in Toronto is reporting that Luc Bourdon has died in a motorcycle accident in New Brunswick today.

Bourdon was 21-years-old. He was a first round selection and tenth overall choice in the 2005 Entry Draft. He played 27 games with the Canucks this season and was considered a top prospect. Our condolences go out to the Bourdon family.

whoa-

Sad, very sad.

Everyone says he was a top prospect. I dont recal seeing him play but i did see some of his numbers and they werent that great. i am not even sure if he was leading his team in goals.

Either way, its a shame that we wont be able to see him develop.

He was a defensman. His was a very good one too. He showed a lot of talent. He did have some problems with injuries that keep him out of games. He did show a lot of promise. From everything I read on him he was a good kid and very active and loved in the community. He will be greatly missed.

Well thats probably why he wasnt a leading scorer. I thought he was a forward. I really really want to get a motorcycle, but stories like these just keep holding me back. (money too.)

RIP buddy.

This is so sad, esp with someone so very young. My condolences to his family and team mates. I must of met him when he came to Denver, I just don't remember right now.

It's pretty much the top story in the news around these parts today. Prelims say he ran his motorcycle into a tractor trailer.
Sad to see any kid that age get their ticket punched.

It turns out that he was Penguins (demoted) defenseman Kris Letang's roomate in juniors and Letang is very broken up about it understandably. Apparently he bought the cycle only 3 days prior to his fatal accident. Sad, very sad.

You know when something this tragic happens there really is never an answer. Hearing that he just got the cycle is tough, it brings up so many "what if's". I will keep his family in my prayers and I'm sure the Canuks will do all they can to be there for his family.
