"Hockey Fights Cancer" has a new meaning in the capital, since it was announced Sens goalie Craig Anderson's wife Nicholle was diagnosed with cancer.
Anderson has left the team indefinitely to support his wife.
Meanwhile, the community has a chance to show its support tonight.
A percentage of proceeds from tickets for tonight's Sens game against Buffalo will go toward supporting Cancer Care and research at the Ottawa Hospital.
Also, you can text SENS to 45678 for a $10 donation and SENATORS to 45678 for a $5 contribution.
The NHL will match all generated funds up to a total $5,000
This is the 9th year for Hockey Fights Cancer in the Capital.
