Yeah my hurt hearts to hear this news, for both him and his family. Like others have already said, what a brave and strong family.

Gah - terribly sad news...
My grandfather succumbed to Lou Gehrig's Disease/ALS in my 1st yr university shortly after he retired. : (
Heart goes out to the family - brutal disease.

Lost a friend to ALS a year ago. Still hurts. Worst disease out there. Snow was the best of us.

Chris absolutely kicked ALS’ ass for years. He inspired hope, raised money, made unbelievable memories, kept working and got promoted, and spent years raising his kids and loving his amazing wife.
Dude is a hero.

devastating news. Chris and his family have been nothing but an inspiration these past few years, the way they have tackled this was incredible.
This wonderful family didn't deserve this. #### ALS.

Chris and his family are an absolute model of inspiration, love, and hard work. Devestated to hear this and I hope his children realize how much of a shining light he is to the hockey community and in life in general.

Good reminder not to sweat the small stuff and take nothing for granted.
Happy that we saw the Snows embracing the situation and living their best lives in spite of it the last few years. It was inspiring.

Very sad news as he is an individual with tremendous character. You could tell how respected he was within the organization. My heart goes out to his family and all who had the pleasure of working with him. Such a terrible disease but you always saw him tackle every challenge with positivity and determination.

Nooooooooooooooo
You knew this day was going to come. You know how the movie is going to end. Still gut wrenching to read.
Chris and Kelsie are heroes in my book. The kids too. What an amazing family.

Horrible situation, and the Snows faced it with bravery and dignity.
