Jordan Landry played hockey in a league for one season before his health took him off the ice.
Then, he played mini-sticks in the hallways of Toronto's Sick Kids hospital with resident clown A. Leboo.
He played air hockey in the lounge.
He made team logos out of melted beads — his goal was to do all 30 NHL teams but he did his favourite first: the Chicago Blackhawks, an inexplicable choice to his family, who all cheer for different teams.
He invited nurses to come to his room at, say, 2 p.m. for a game. They did and he played all the positions himself.
Jordan was born with a heart abnormality, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, that rendered the left side of his heart underdeveloped. At 9 years old, he'd already gone through three heart surgeries.
