Why this goal is MASSIVE



Why this goal is MASSIVE

This goal is so special and I’ll explain why you want a good name that’s a throwback to the Past well Cody Hodson so hodin was an NHL player in the early 2010s I remember him most on Vancouver actually even though looking at the numbers he only played a Seasons worth

Of games there in total 328 NHL games 64 goals 78 assists for 142 points pretty good especially someone who played pretty much exclusively fourth and third line minutes he also did have a great rookie year by the way which is probably why I remember him most from Van

Anyway if you’re wondering why maybe you haven’t heard his name for a while Cody hoden was in 2017 diagnosed with malignant hyperthermia and was forced to retire from hockey he credited this diagnosis for his decline in play and as far as I can tell malignant hypothermia is a rare but serious genetic condition

Which can cause essentially muscle attacks in relation to certain drugs like I said complex rare do your own research but Cody Hansson notably has now attempted to return to professional hockey on January 17th he signed a professional trial contract with the Milwaukee Admirals of the AHL and in

Three games he now has three points including his first professional hockey goal in over 8 years this evening so awesome I love how it prompt the announcers were also the tow drag before the assist quite a nice pass but that’s your Feelgood story of the day let me

Cody Hodgson is a former member of the Buffalo Sabres, Nashville Predators, and Vancouver Canucks who after 328 NHL games was forced to retire from hockey after being diagnosed with malignant hyperthermia. He recently returned to the AHL and scored his first goal tonight.

  1. "Want a good name who's a throwback to the past?" Unless you're in Buffalo where you're finally happy you're not paying him anymore.

  2. 18 in a row for the Admirals, capped off with this really special goal from Cody! Being a school day game, I was watching at work. Had to contain my emotions a little there. Let's make it 19 Saturday!

  3. Wow good for him. Hearing players of any sport bounce back horrible illneses is amazing. It really shows their determination.

  4. saying something is genetic is basically admitting they have no idea what causes it or why its happening.

  5. Really awesome to see man. Taking that long off playing professional hockey and to come back and contribute and keep up is great to see. The smile on his mug says it all

  6. I remember that bomb he scored against Tim Thomas, coming the year after Vancouver lost in the cup final, it was a beauty! It was a sad story that he was forced to retire and a real feel good story that he's back doing what he loves!
