Humboldt survivors will reunite for 1st time at NHL Awards in Vegas

The 10 surviving members of the Humboldt Broncos will reunite for the first time at the NHL Awards on Wednesday in Las Vegas, the league announced.

In April, the Broncos team bus was heading to an SJHL playoff game when it collided with a transport truck. The collision killed 16, including 10 players and the head coach.

The NHL and hockey community worldwide rallied around the tragedy, raising over $15 million for a GoFundMe campaign. The immediate outpouring of support also included all NHL players wearing commemorative stickers on their helmets.

The awards show will feature ceremonies for first responders from October's mass shooting in Las Vegas as well, and members from the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School hockey team in Florida.
