SASKATOON — One of the hockey players who was injured in the Humboldt Broncos bus crash is taking his first step to getting back on the ice.
Kaleb Dahlgren, 20, has committed to play for the Lions hockey team at York University in Toronto.
“My goal is to attend York in the fall of this year,” he said Friday in a statement on Twitter. “However, the school has assured me I can begin whenever my body is ready.”
Dahlgren has a lengthy recovery ahead after suffering a fractured skull, a puncture wound in his head, a brain injury and six broken vertebrae in his neck and back.
