From one Gord to another.
Hockey Night in Canada's broadcast of Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final between the San Jose Sharks and Pittsburgh Penguins began with a tribute to the late Gordie Howe, set to Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip singing 'Ahead By A Century.'
Howe passed away Friday at age 88, while Downie recently announced he has terminal brain cancer.
Both men are legendary Canadians in their own right.
