Brian Hamilton, assistant to the equipment attendant for the Canadian team, suffered from malignant melanoma. A fierce and vigilant spectator, present at the game against the Kraken in Seattle on October 23, saw what looked like a mole in Hamilton’s neck. She managed to get the man’s attention before showing him a message on his phone.
Hamilton then saw the team doctor and had the cancerous tumor removed.

“We are looking for this amazing person and we need you to share this with your friends and family to help us find a real life heroine so that I can express my sincere appreciation.”
