    Prayers for Kessel

    He isnt a Sabre, but he is one hell of a young hockey player. Thoughts and prayers go out to Phil Kessel of the Boston Bruins.

    Official Boston Bruins Website | Boston Bruins
    http://bostonbruins.com/pressbox/pressreleases.asp?ID=1872
    The official National Hockey League website including news, rosters, stats, schedules, teams, and video.


    The Kessel family has asked the Boston Bruins to release the following statement: Phil Kessel is being treated today for a medical issue not related to hockey. At this time there is no further update on Phil's condition. When there is an update, and it is appropriate to do so, we will update everyone on Phil's health. We kindly ask that you respect the Kessel family's privacy during this time.-- Kessel is in the thoughts of the B's "You [have] to stick together as a team," said Peter Chiarelli. "You hope and pray for the family and you work your way through it.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all     true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can     mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

      what's he being treated for?

            One other player has Mono on their team but it's all speculation.

                (CBS4) BOSTON CBS4 has learned for the second time in recent months, another young athlete is in a major medical fight. The Boston Bruins' first-round pick Phil Kessel has testicular cancer.

                Sources say Kessel is currently at Mass. General Hospital and was due to undergo surgery.

                Kessel is said to be in good spirits. He was the Bruins' number one pick and fifth overall in the NHL.

                Testicular cancer usually occurs in young men and can be treated and often cured, according to the American Cancer Society.

                    Re: Prayers for Kessel

                    Yea it has been confirmed to be testicular cancer. Its funny too a buddy of mine is a big Kessell fan and picked up a jersey. He got the shirt yesterday.... same day as the news.
                    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
                    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
                    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
                    It was all                     true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
                    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can                     mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                      Wow, that sucks for Kessel. Hope he recovers and has a roaring comeback, maybe giving the Bruins an extra spark...albeit they are doing good right now.
