Brian Boyle: The League’s All-Star.
Brian Boyle missed the New Jersey Devils’ training camp this season. He was MIA for “personal reasons.” He was adamant that he would be back in time for the start of the season. Speculation surrounding him began to fly around the rumor mill. Was he actually planning on playing for the Devils this year? Was he injured? Was his family okay?

During the preseason, Boyle issued a statement that explained why he had been missing from camp: He had been diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) during a routine physical performed by Devils medical staff. He was dead set on returning to the team by the time the home opener rolled around.
