"License to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man; free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case, my enemy is a varmint....and a varmint will never quit...ever. They're like Viet Cong...Varmint Cong, so you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower...and that's all she wrote. Au revoir, gopher."Karl Spackler 1980
Very sad day here in Pioneerland. Martin, like many players in college hockey, is one of those hard-working, lunch-pail senior forwards who plays the two way game, stayed all four years, hits the books hard every year (A fixture on the WCHA all-academic team) and gives his heart and soul to the team and school. Every team has guys like Jesse - they are the backbone of our game, and while the superstars get all the press, it's the pluggers like Martin who exemplify the student-athlete concept. Martin finally worked his way up the first line over years of effort, and to know he's lying in a hospital bed far from Denver or Edmonton (his hometown), wondering what happens next is devastating. Walking, something most all of us take for granted, will be the next big obstacle in his life. Keep the good wishes coming - I know his family and the DU hockey community really appreciate it.
