Crazy.

From Twitter.

Two years ago, Mirosnichenko was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. He received a call from Mario Lemieux, who battled Hodgkin's lymphoma in 92-93 and told him "Life doesn't end. You're going to recover."

Now, he scores his first NHL goal in Pittsburgh, where Mario starred.

Love this kid.

This kid went through so much to get to this point, he must be on Cloud 9 right now.

Awesome, good for him

 

[EdJovanovski]

Amazing story, and will be the best player from his draft class

That’s really great. Very happy for the kid.

Looked lime Lemieux on that play too tbh

I took a nap during the game, waking up to the highlights and instinctively shouting "oh! Miro!" was something I don't think I'll forget any time soon, loved seeing it even if I didn't make it through the live version

Well that's ****ing awesome

Ovi and his nephew lol

He literally called Ovi "uncle Sasha" in post-game interview

Nasty

Congrats from a Blues fan. He's one of the players I wanted from that draft (mind you, I'm very happy with Jimmy Snuggerud), and he overcame so much to get to this point. I'm a fan of his for life.

Would love to hear Don Cherry pronounce his name lol
