People gather during a memorial ceremony for those, who were killed in the Russian ice hockey team Lokomotiv Yaroslav plane crash, at Arena-2000 (the team's stadium) in Yaroslavl on September 10, 2011.
The Russian city mourning the loss of its ice hockey team in the September 7 plane disaster payed its last respects in the team's home arena. The accident, which killed 43, was the worst sporting disaster in the country's recent memory, claiming the lives of several international players who played in the National Hockey League and previously won Olympic medals.
