‘We still have a job to do tomorrow’: Broncos leaders on first game after crash
Nobody would blame Brayden Camrud if he asked for a helping hand this year as the night of the Broncos bus crash, and the pain of losing teammates, coaches and staff remain fresh.
But instead of asking for assistance from his team during his courageous return to the Broncos this season, Camrud, who survived the crash, is making sure everybody else in the room is doing alright first — a true sign of his leadership.
“I kinda owe it to these guys this year to step up and be a leader and make sure they all feel comfortable being in the room, too,” he said in the hallways of the Elgar Petersen Arena on Tuesday, one day before his Broncos will play their home opener against the Nipawin Hawks.
“I’m trying to turn a new page a little bit and make sure I’m good to go for them this season,” he said.
