Sad news out of Warroad with the passing of Roger Christian. Certainly a gentleman who had a great impact on the sport of hockey at all levels. Recently listed on the Hub's countdown at #59, went on to Olympic and National team success, and produced many of the stick variations that have developed since the mid-60's.
That said, an even finer man, husband, father, and grandfather behind the scenes. He will be missed!

So sorry to hear this news... My best to the family.
A hockey pioneer in Minnesota and Internationally...
I used and broke many of his sticks over the years...
My favorite sticks... Thank you Roger.
