If there's anything for certain about the hockey community, it's that it always rallies together when one of its members is facing adversity.
We've seen it happen with multiple scary situations involving members of the hockey family, and today, we saw it again.
Chris Snow, the Assistant GM for the NHL's Calgary Flames, recently received the devastating news that he'd been diagnosed with ALS.
He revealed the news through the Flames website in a heart wrenching and hopeful letter written by his wife, Kelsie.
Kelsie's optimism is stunning when she explains that Chris has a family history of the disease, but that he's part of a clinical trial which doctors hope will make history.
Of course, the hockey world has all rallied around the young family in this tough time.
Snow was named Assistant GM before this hockey season, and is in his 13th year with the Flames, and worked as director of hockey operations for the Minnesota Wild before he started as director of hockey analysis with Calgary in 2011.
We're rooting for you, Chris!
