it's awful the guy has a wife and kids. but it's supposed to be a very treatable form of leukemia. They've made it seam like he'll be okay.

***** for the leafs

I thought he was a actually a pretty good signing for the Leafs, short term anyway. Later on it probably wouldn't have looked as good, when Blake's production would have dropped off. Anyways, bad luck for the Leafs. Hopefully, Blake is able to fight off Leukemia and get back to his normal life

Hopefully, he pulls through
