Brian 'Red' Hamilton figured he owed his life to a stranger seated behind the bench at a Canucks game, but he didn't know her name and so he wasn't able to thank her for the warning about the mole on the back of his neck. Turns out it was malignant. Happy story with a great ending -- the malignant melanoma has been removed and the Canucks found the woman who warned Hamilton to get his mole checked.
