CaptainChorizo 1,983 Posted November 20, 2014 NHL legend, Gordie Howe, 86, has suffered a massive stroke. Keith Olbermann gave a very heartfelt tribute to him on his show yesterday(IE not the kind for someone you except to live for years to come). Seems like a pretty good pick if he makes it to 2015.
