@AJ__24@JeffMarek Ehhh yes and no. Would she have been signed as one of the first three on her own? Maybe not. But she’s absolutely a top 20-25 skater in NA hockey and would likely be a top six forward on any team.
It is we great sadness that we announce the passing of Rodion Amirov. Two years ago, Rodion was diagnosed with a brain tumour. From the moment he received the news, he refused to speak in the negative, determined to enjoy every day, facing it with the same positive attitude he showed during his hockey career. We will always remember his courage, his desire, his will, his smile, all of the great things about him. We’d like to thank his doctors, who took great care of him. We’d like to thank the Toronto Maple Leafs and his KHL - Salavat Yulayev Ufa team. Both did everything possible to help in any way, do whatever was necessary for Rodion and the Amirov family. And we’d like to thank hockey fans all over the world who sent notes of encouragement and best wishes over the past two years. They meant so much to the Amirov family.
This NEEDS to be SHARED everywhere.

The world lost the most special boy and an absolute hero last night. Ben, you were the best son we could ever hope for and you were my best bud ever. Your sisters were so lucky to have you as such a sweet brother. You fought so long and hard and beat so many odds.
i am still sitting with "hockey canada uses money from registration fees to create a fund that pays out settlements for sexual assaults" and i don't think i'm going to be over that basically ever
