Hopefully he just lost a ball and that´s all, Im maybe blunt, but I lost a kidney and after I recovered from the surgery I was back in action, so hopefully Dakota has the same luck as me =)

I’m really hoping they found it pretty early, the fact they removed this successfully is good news, and I love the message of him spreading awareness.
Wishing joshua the absolute best

I wish him well!
Going so public is a credit to him. It’s something that is so stigmatised. In my mid-teens I found a lump and never told anyone. It took me a long time (a few years) to see a doctor and it was just a cyst. So it’s not always the worst news if you find something and it’ll save a lot of angst.

All things considered it's one of the "best" cancer to have if you're going to have cancer. Last guy missed 11 games and went on to be the leagues Ironman and top Weiner eater. Godspeed Dakota!
Edit: Not last, Theodore was diagnosed in 2019 but that doesn't take anything away from the myth, legend and OG uniballer.

I think he's my favourite Canuck. He was fun to watch in the playoffs. Rest up and get well soon!

It's my first day.
Not to take anything away from Phil, but technically I think the last guy was Shea Theodore.
But if Dakota can come back the way those two have.

Something about testicular cancer and top weiner eater being in the same message just doesn’t sit right with me
Thank God he caught it early enough.
I wonder if this opens the door for Lekkerimakki to make the team at least till Dakota returns?

The wording was purely accidental, I swear
One member of the Bruins media floated the rumor out on social media that Kessel missed time because of a drug/alcohol problem when in fact he was undergoing treatment. He still hasn't apologized about it to this day and one of the reasons why we look at Jimmy Murphy with disdain.
Best of luck to Dakota - glad they caught it early and he's on the road to recovery!
