After it was announced last week that Islanders' legend Mike Bossy entered palliative care, this news was unfortunately expected to follow in due time.
-
Despite confusion due to conflicting reports, it has been confirmed that Bossy has passed away at the age of 65. Bossy was facing a public battle lung cancer & underlying complications.
Bossy remains one of the most decorated NHLers ever & is arguably the greatest finisher our sport has ever seen. If not due to injury, he would likely be the NHL's scoring all-time scoring leader. Bossy won four straight Stanley Cups with the New York Islanders, entrenching is status in legend.
Here are some of his greatest moments to remember:
Our deepest condolences go out to his family & loved ones in this trying time.
