A manager for the Vancouver Canucks says his life was saved by a Seattle Kraken fan during their first game in Seattle.
Canucks’ assistant equipment manager Brian "Red" Hamilton says a woman sat behind the Canucks bench during their game against the Kraken on October 23. She showed him a message on his phone, and directed him to get a mole on his neck checked out.
Red says her persistence convinced him to see a doctor – where he learned the mole was actually a malignant melanoma, which he got removed!"My name is Brian "Red" Hamilton and I am the assistant equipment manager for the Vancouver Canucks. I am trying to find a very special person and I need the hockey community's help.
"Problem is, I don't know who you are or where you are from. I do know that you were sitting behind the Canucks bench the night the Seattle Kraken played their first ever home game. That evening, Oct 23rd, and the message you showed me on your cell phone will forever be etched into my brain and has made a true life-changing difference for me and my family.
"I want you all to know that this isn't about me. It's about an incredible person taking the time to notice something concerning and then finding a way to point it out during the chaos of a hockey game. Going to great lengths to get my attention from the stands while I did my job on the Canucks bench. We are looking for this incredible person and we need you to share this with your friends and families to help us find a real life hero, so I can express my sincerest gratitude.
Fans on Twitter called on the Seattle Kraken to help find the woman, but the community quickly put the pieces together and found her. Stay connected with FOX 13 News on all platforms:
