It's easy to smile when Mattias Janmark takes it to another level - because you know how hard he's working just to be on the ice.
"It's such a great story, and he's such a great person, that it really does make you happy to watch him out there," Stars general manager Jim Nill said. "What he's dealing with, not a lot of people have dealt with, so to see him battle through it and play the way he's playing is pretty special."
Janmark suffers from osteochondritis dissecans, a disease that affects blood flow in the bones of his knee.
