Cody Hodgson trailer for RYR-1 gene

[SDS]

 

[GASabresIUFAN]

I'd love to see a CoHo night in Buffalo.  I think he deserves a huge ovation from the home crowd.  

[inkman]

Feel for the dude. Seems very at peace with it and glad he's looking to increase awareness. 

Feel bad for partaking in the razzing we piled on eliminating letters from his name (ok at the time it was funny). Best of luck Cody!!

Yes perhaps a promotional RYR-1 awareness night or something to that effect.

Good to know about his story.  I had no idea what happened to him until someone had mentioned his issues a few days ago.

Glad to hear he is doing well.  Genetic disorders and all their variances are no joke.  Amazing he made it as far as he did.  As a father of an 11 year old son with a rare genetic disorder, he amazes me every day with his progress, his attitude and perseverance.  All my best to Cody.

Why are we only hearing about this now?

It came out last spring I think... took a while to diagnose.

Not sure what to tell you.  I learned about it on Sabrespace some time ago.

Thread from just over a year ago from dudacek:  What Cody Hodgson didn't tell us

I believe I was the one to start the whole Cy Hgsn thing and even though none of us, including Cody, knew what was going on at the time, it is not something I feel good about.  I know not to make fun of anyone.

Anyway, I long ago gave him his letters back.  Best wishes Cody.

I think it is a good idea for the Sabres to honour him in someway to help spread awareness of this issue.

Geez.

Good on you, Cody Hodgson.

I am curious now: There must be a spectrum of symptoms associated with the disorder? Because he's evidently still quite functional in terms of his gross and fine motor skills.

Ah, man - the letter thing was just fans clowning around with a proverbial whipping boy player. There's nothing really wrong with that.

Also: Didn't someone once riff off that by saying that a player who was then wearing an "A" also needed to have the A's removed from his name? I loved that post.

I think that was me ripping on Drew Stafford.

I know, but still, in hindsight.

I believe that was our beloved dark and his unending disdain for the much maligned Drew Stfford.

It's these ideas right here why the Pegulas need a fan liaison. Someone who is in touch with the fans and has a brain to work and put together stuff like this. Give me 55k and benefits and I would be all over it.

We have had threads discussing CoHo’s retirement and the reason for it in the past such as this one.

What happened to Cody is heart breaking.  To imagine that he got as far as he did, his work ethic must be out of this world.  He deserves ever cent we paid him.

I sent Rich Jureller, the President of the Sabres Foundation, an email requesting a night honoring CoHo and the work he is doing.

Do people on the board still think Myers has marfans?

No.  GoDD has been banned for a long time.  To my knowledge he was the only one that thought that.  Who knows, maybe GoDD is right.

I don’t remember who was saying it, I just remember seeing it being said for a few years. 

Do I dare ask why he was banned?

No.

Lets just say he had strong beliefs that he refused to stop voicing.  To his credit, I must say.  He stuck to his guns and it cost him.

I think it would be awesome if they did something like this and do the 50/50 raffle with half going to his charity or something like that.

That’s too bad. I liked him.
