This will be the first time 10 of the surviving members of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) hockey team will reunite since the April 6 crash, says the NHL.

Sixteen people, including 10 players, were killed when a semi-trailer collided with the bus carrying the SJHL team as they were travelling to a playoff game against the Nipawin Hawks on Highway 35, about 30 kilometres north of Tisdale, Sask. Thirteen people were injured in the collision.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing.
