Last month, Red Wings prospect Jack Adams received devastating news when he was told by his Union College hockey coach, Rick Bennett, that his brother had suddenly passed away at 27 years old. Mark 'Roo' Adams was a hockey player, devoted son, mentoring brother and loyal friend. The sense of loss for Jack and his family is still overwhelming. Jack reached out to the Red Wings and asked if he could write a tribute about his brother and share it with Red Wings fans. We were more than happy to accommodate Jack because he is a part of our family and we grieve with him. - RIP Roo.
I have always been curious about human life. Why things happen, how things work, everything. In this situation, there is no why. There's no explanation.
You're still here
