Olczyk's chemo treatment lasts 48 hours, and he will not work those weeks.Six weeks after starting a 24-week chemotherapy regimen for colon cancer, NBC Sports NHL analyst Eddie Olczyk says he’s returning to the booth.
He will be working with broadcaster Mike “Doc” Emrick on the "Wednesday Night Rivalry" game (8:00 p.m. ET, NBCSN) between the Chicago Blackhawks and St. Louis Blues in St. Louis. He also plans to do the Blackhawks’ local broadcast the following night in Chicago, where he works with Pat Foley.
“We have some dates that we have highlighted and hopefully I will be strong to do the job,” Olczyk said. “If I am not feeling good, I just have to be honest with everyone and tell them I can’t do it.”
“Doing what I love to do will help me pass the time,” Olczyk said. “Looking at the calendar hour-by-hour, day-by-day, week-by-week, month-by-month gets a little long.”
