It was recently reported that he was diagnosed with ALS, and he has now been rendered unable to speak, among other things.
Fellow hall-of-famer Darryl Sittler aided Salming in saluting the fans.
He returned to Toronto tonight for a Hockey Hall of Fame celebration. The fans didn't cease to show their passion and love for Salming.
Although the Maple Leafs season hasn't gone completely as planned, moments like these are times where fans can truly be united.
