This discussion has been brought up on the forum before, but just in case anyone hasn't seem the promos by FSN, during Hockey Day Minnesota, FSN will be doing a story on Duke.

He endured a 10-hour operation due to a growth on his brain stem, and the story depicts his courageous battle and recovery.

Continued thoughts and prayers are with Duke and his family.

It was a nice story done by FSN! =D>

What a tremendous character he and his family show. I hope the Wild show the FSN piece on the video board ahead of tonight's game, as he is dropping the ceremonial first puck!!

Keep up the great work, Duke!!!

If Duke's story does not rip your heart out and give you perspective on life nothing will. The kid is an inspiration and GOD BLESS him!!

I can't find a link anywhere. I just emailed my close personal friend, Anthony LaPanta, to see if there was one available.

He's not the best at returning emails..

Update: Lapanta emailed me back, and he assumed the story was on the foxnorth website, but he will see if it can be linked, but no promises.
