Boston, MA. Mass General lung cancer survivors Matty Leaf and Bill Schrul will represent Team Draft at TD Garden tonight as a part of our Survivor at Every Rink with the NHL. The survivors will be joined by Mass General Medical Oncologist Lecia Sequist and watch the Bruins take on the visiting Chicago Blackhawks. 

Through our Survivor at Every Rink initiative, we are working with all 30 NHL teams to have lung cancer survivors and a lung cancer doctor from a local cancer center and their guests attend one of the team’s home games as a part of the NHL’s national initiative Hockey Fights Cancer!

 

Our goals are to create a unique experience for participating survivors and to raise awareness on a local, national and international level by using each game and each survivor’s story to weave a broader narrative about the state of lung cancer and the hope that now exists for those battling the disease.
