PENS PAIN: Kuzmenko’s Heartbreaking Tribute to Dad After Horrific Bear Attack!
What do you do when tragedy strikes close to home? For Pittsburgh Penguins winger Andrei Kuzmenko, it meant changing his jersey number to 62 in honor of his late father, who was tragically killed by a bear in Siberia. The 30-year-old player had been absent from the team for a week after dealing with the devastating loss, but he's back and ready to face the Flyers on opening night. Kuzmenko's father, Alexander, was a 62-year-old hockey coach who was attacked by a bear while on a fishing trip with friends. The incident was horrific, with Kuzmenko's father being bitten in the head and suffering severe facial injuries. As Kuzmenko returns to the ice, he's not only mourning the loss of his father but also finding a way to pay tribute to his legacy.
