Canada's Cooper Steps Away Amid Family Tragedy

Jon Cooper, who serves as head coach for both Canada's Olympic hockey team and the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning, will miss the Lightning's next two games due to a family tragedy. The announcement comes just days after Team Canada's defeat in the Winter Olympics gold medal game.
