News Article: Mike Bossy Diagnosed with Lung Cancer

[Adam Michaels]

I know he wasn't a Habs player and he was in the media the last number of years, but he's been an important figure in hockey, as well as in Quebec. He wrote a letter for the fans to let them know that he has to step away from media to undergo treatments and fight this. Wish him nothing but the best.

Sad

One of the nicest, good hearted hockey player of all-time

Fight on, Mike

I wonder if he was a heavy smoker like Guy. Sure could snipe just as well; maybe even better.

Class act all the way, I wish him all the best in this fight. Go Mike!!!!

 

[LeHab]

Never got to see Bossy as a player but definitely appears as a great guy on TV. Hope he gets through.

 

[Mandala]

Good luck Mike!

 

[lillypad33]

This is the sort of player that should have been in charge of disciplinary actions for the league. Hope he beats it.

 

[BozoTheClown]

Probably the best goal scorer ever.
Good luck!

 

[Harry Wong]

Great player.

Michel Bossy was the most prolific sniper the Isles ever had.

 

[DesmondDekker]

Best wishes to this legend.

 

[TheBlob]

A guy who speaks his mind. I love him.

Beat that shit out like you sniped those goalies, buddy.

 

[expy]

Sad to hear.

Was he a known smoker ?

 

[Scintillating10]

Bossy should have been a Hab. He'd carried on after Lafleur. Those 4 Islander Cups in 80s been ours.

Sam Pollock mistake.

 

[WickedPegJets]

Sad to hear.

Was he a known smoker ?

French Canadian (Québécois father, Ukrainian mother) most likely smoked.

 

[Locks]

Terrible news. Mike is a legend and a class act. Wishing him to get well soon.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Earlier today, it was reported that he was in palliative care. TVA Sports confirms that he's home and surrounded by loved ones.

 

[Vachon23]

Those rumours are simply disgusting. Le the family annonce it, there is no race for who report it first for that kind of news

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

French Canadian (Québécois father, Ukrainian mother) most likely smoked.

Eugene Melnyks mother is Ukrainian too.
