Finally, Boston Hockey Now wants to pay respects to Calgary Flames assistant general manager and Melrose, MA native Chris Snow and his family. As many of you probably know, Chris, like his late father Bob, who mentored me as a writer, valiantly battled ALS for the last four years. Chris and his family showed courage as they documented their personal battle with this horrible disease and did all they could to find a cure. Chris is now in a coma that he will never wake up for, and to him, his family, his late Dad, and all affected, I say thank you. Snowy Strong!

For you, Chris, and your Dad, who I miss so much! We will keep you in our hearts.
