Palfreyman's parents took some time to speak to their son's team to share the following message :
He said the happiest day in Eli's life was when he was named captain, and he said you cannot take a shift off the rest of the year because Eli's spirit will be pushing you to do your best every shift, and I want to see it.
Hockey is a game. Life is bigger than hockey and do your best and remember, Eli will be there with you.
Hockey is a game. Life is bigger than hockey and do your best and remember, Eli will be there with you.
As a father myself I can't imagine what the Palfreyman is going through this is a truly heartbreaking story we here at Hawks Insider want the Family and friends of Eli to know we give our sincerest condolences...
