great news. cherry on top would be him still making the NHL.

I just hope he gets a ton of playing time this year as he needs it and it’s likely there are likely gonna be less foreigners playing in the KHL with everything going on in Russia.

It was nice to see him on the pre-skate and touch the puck.

It sucks he's missed time but I think he can get back on track if he's on the ice in Nov-Dec.

Has there been word on the progress of the tumor itself, is he free and clear?

 

[LeafChief]

This is fantastic news. Hopefully he can live a normal life and it's a bonus if he can continue to be a hockey player.

Has there been any update on the tumor? I assume treatment has gone well if he's practicing with the team but haven't seen any confirmation on if there was surgery performed or if chemotherapy has gotten rid of it?

This is great to hear!

 

[Ciao]

I'm glad to see him travel.

I couldn't care less if he plays or not.

My greatest wish is for his good health. That's the main thing here.
