Welcome to the Full 60 featuring Craig Custins and presented by The Athletic.

Each week we'll dive into the biggest stories in hockey while bringing in unique voices to

entertain and explain all aspects of the game.

Hey, this is Craig and welcome to this week's episode of the full 60.

This week's guest, and he is on the line right now,

is somebody that I've been meaning to have on for a long time for so many reasons.

It's Chris Snow, the Calgary Flames Assistant General Manager,

and there's a lot to get into with Chris.

You know, I'm doing well.

I'm doing well.

I'm coming up on two days from now is the one year anniversary of a doctor, a doctor who has studied this disease for his entire career telling me that I had one year to live.

And I think that, you know, I looked forward to this date as I felt, you know, really good through the winter months with such excitement as a real marker.

And, you know, I'm out there every day right now, going for bike rides with my kids, playing

football and baseball, left-handed, doing really anything I want to do. And, you know, it's hard to,

it's hard to look that far forward with a disease like pine, but the medication that I'm on is is giving me an

opportunity for a longer a lot longer likely period of time than I was initially given and you know

the gratitude I feel right now it's always mixed with anxiety and an unknown about, you know, what could

happen next because I could wake up one day and not feel as good. But I remind myself on a regular

basis to feel gratitude. Yeah. Okay. Well, let's let's let's start right there because, you know,

if for listeners, if you're not familiar with Chris's story, I mean, certainly I'm assuming you are if you're listening to this, but he a year ago was diagnosed with ALS.

And this is coincidentally ALS Awareness Month.
