Jim Kelley, a Hall of Fame hockey journalist, recently passed away from cancer.
Kelley, from Buffalo, was a great columnist, someone for many hockey scribes to aspire to.

His last column was a review of the Leafs thus far under Brian Burke…he filed it at 1:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 30, he died later that day.
Good bye Jim, strength to your family and friends from all of us hockey fans who enjoyed your work.
