Langille was overwhelmed with the support she received.
“I have never experienced the amount of support that I had over the past month,” said Langille. “I want to thank my teammates, coaches and hockey communities for their ongoing support with this fundraiser.
“I know that this would have made Nan proud.”
The Penguins raised %1,600 from “Stops Against Cancer” and then $500 from the Pink in the Rink game.
The money will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society in the coming days.
