A heartbreaking passing strikes the hockey community on Friday
It's a sad day in the world of entertainment and hockey as we say goodbye to M. Emmet Walsh, the actor who played a sports writer 'Dickie Dunn' in the Slapshot movie.
Walsh, known for his roles in many films, passed away from cardiac arrest at the age of 88.
Slapshot, one of the best hockey movies ever made, will always be one of the best hockey movies.
We send our condolences to M. Emmet Walsh's family and everyone who is effected by this tragedy.
