"Swift Current" is must-see film
WASHINGTON —
For all the right reasons, Sheldon Kennedy is again at the forefront of NHL off-ice conversations.
Kennedy, 46, has graciously shared the startling truth about his teenage life in the feature-length documentary "Swift Current" — a compelling story about the sexual abuse he endured from coach Graham James — and the resulting recklessness he lived to near destruction.
The film debuted Saturday night on Canada's Sportsnet, past my deadline. But after watching the two-minute, 38-second trailer, this is a must-see film for all hockey fans — particularly Avalanche followers, given that Kennedy and Joe Sakic were the scoring stars for the Saskatchewan major-junior team.
