A touching moment occurred Friday in Arizona, as Tuscon Roadrunners captain Craig Cunningham laced up his skates for the first time since collapsing on the ice Nov. 19.
Cunningham, 26, had part of his leg amputated after suffering an acute cardiac arrest ventricular fibrillation which nearly ended his life, and has openly shared his positive recovery process.
Since the incident, the hockey community has sent an outpouring of support Cunningham's way, and the Roadrunners will honor their captain April 8 with a pregame ceremony.
