Yes sad day.

I would recommend A book by Jeff Pearlman "The Bad guys won"It shows Gary Carter as the catalyst that kick started the famous come back against the Red Sox in the Sixth game of the 1986 world series.The "Bill Buckner" game.

That books's a great read. You'd never get away with that stuff these days, in any sport.

Nice tribute by the Montreal Candiens to him (pity the Expos aren't still in Montreal)
