Celtics Will Honor P-Bruins Goalie Jordan Sigalet Tonight

BOSTON -- Providence Bruins goalie Jordan Sigalet will be honored tonight as a Boston Celtics Hero Among Us.

When Sigalet was 23, he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, a disease which affects the central nervous system and haunts over 400,000 Americans and 2.5 million people worldwide.

During a game on Nov. 16, his body completely shut down in response to the MS. Sigalet refused to let that be the end of his career, and through his unparalleled determination and positive attitude, he made a stunning recovery and was back on the ice in less than two months.

Sigalet has dedicated himself to inspiring others with MS to never give up and has founded the "Sigalet Saves for MS" Foundation.
