Saku Koivu returns from cancer

[The Wanderer]

one of the great sports stories of the year, Saku Koivu returns from his battle with cancer, gets an 8-minute standing ovation tonight from the fans in Montreal, then the Canadians win 4-3 to secure their first playoff birth in 3 years

let's hope Saku's cancer stays in remission for years and years to come

that is indeed an incredible story, couple that with the fact noone expected anything from them this year.

All the best to him.

What a great story...best of health to Saku...and hopefully plenty of rest after a first round sweep at the hands of the Bruins.
(I want him to be healthy, but I don't want the Habs to beat my B's

)
