MeiGray is standing up for Chris Kushneriuk And we're asking our great hobby to help by bidding heavily in a charity auction hosted by MeiGray and NHL Auctions.
Here's the link:

Kushneriuk is a 25-year-old power forward from Ottawa who played last season for the ECHL's Wheeling Nailers.
Late in the 2011-12 season, after battling an injury, the Robert Morris University grad got the news that no one wants to hear. He was diagnosed with cancer. Although it appeared that he had beaten it, the recent news hasn't been as positive, and Chris has found himself in yet another upward battle.
However, Kushneriuk remains upbeat that he will come out on top once again. To do so he must now travel to Indianapolis in order to receive treatments that will ultimately save his life.
Unfortunately with no insurance in the United States his medical expenses will be extraordinarily large, therefore needing all the financial support he can get.
Chris turns 26 on Christmas Eve. We'd like to give him a great birthday present from our collecting community by auctioning off his home and road Wheeling Nailer game-worn jerseys from the first half of the 2011-12 season, his Set 1s.
MeiGray is donating these jerseys, with the proceeds from this charity auction going to help fund Chris' medical expenses.
Please help by bidding aggressively. Chris is an aggressive forward who is going to aggressively fight his disease. Let's help him fight.
