The two longtime Philadelphia Flyers athletic trainers who filed a lawsuit against team ownership in April after receiving similar medical diagnoses they allege came from unknowing exposure to cancer-causing carcinogens at the Flyers training facility, amended their complaint Tuesday to accuse Comcast Spectacor of intentionally punishing one of them, including through verbal abuse from head coach John Tortorella, according to court documents, obtained by Crossing Broad.
McCrossin developed the rare medical conditions essential thrombocythemia, myeloproliferative neoplasm, and the blood cancer myelofibrosis, which is terminal.
Raffa developed thrombocythemia, which is incurable and is proliferative for other blood diseases, such as cancer, or inducing strokes.
After exhaustive research, the pair allege the contraction of these diseases was the result of excessive exposure to cancer-causing carcinogens that are emitted from Zambonis, used to cut and clean the ice surface at the Flyers practice facility, and the result of the training room, where they have worked for the past two decades, butting up against the Zamboni room where these carcinogenic chemicals were potentially ingested extensively due to inappropriate ventilation or through a shared drainage system.
