HALIFAX (CP) - A "well-loved" volunteer crew member swept off a Nova Scotia tall ship sailing the Atlantic is the daughter of Montreal Canadiens general manager Bob Gainey, the hockey club said Sunday.

Laura Gainey, 25, was washed off a deck at the back of the vessel by a huge wave at 9:30 p.m. Friday.

A search has been underway since then, with U.S. coast guard vessels, several aircraft and the Picton Castle barque participating in the attempts to find Gainey in seas 700 kilometres east-southeast of Cape Cod.

Hope she's OK...pretty cold to be in water for over 36 hours.
