Hockey fan 'saves coach's life' after spotting cancerous mole

A ice hockey fan has been given a scholarship after alerting a coach to a cancerous mole on his neck. Medical student Nadia Popovici told Sky News she initially thought she’d made a mistake in telling Vancouver Canucks coach Brian Hamilton to see a doctor ASAP. Nadia was at a Seattle Kraken and Canucks' match in October when she spotted the mole on the back of Hamilton's neck as she watched the game. She wrote a message on her phone telling him to seek medical help. He did - and found the mole to be malignant melanoma - it was removed and he is now cancer free. The two teams have now clubbed together to pay Nadia’s $10,000 student medical fees.
