Chris Pronger had a heart issue and played 12 more seasons, it wasn't as severe though

DJ Hayden more recently.

Any updates yet?

Can’t forget James Conner made it through cancer and came back to play ball. Hope Hamlin makes a somewhat full recovery and isn’t a potato for loosing so much oxygen to his brain. Dude suited up like everyone else. Hope he recovers 100%

I'm aware, it's why I said its sad either way. And why I hope the team can get him a ring this year.

Not even comparable

Lol not familiar with bills mafia? We donate insane amounts of money anytime something serious to any player or team happens...especially our own. Allen's grandma dies, mafia donates millions to the Buffalo children's hospital, tre white goes down, millions go to his foundation, tua gets that concussion , we donate to his foundation, andy Dalton gets us to the playoffs in 2017, mad donations. Its just what we and I've done repeatedly in the past & present. This team, and sport is always more than just a game to us. Hamlins foundation has gone from 1,000s to millions in not even 24 hours.

Its for a great cause as well. He's from the hands down roughest neighborhood in Pittsburgh and chose to stay home to support said neighborhood.

Nothing new as of yet, no.
