Rip Claude Lemieux

Some people had an issue with his style of play, which, although they would say otherwise, probably stemmed from the fact he had been a huge part of our Cup win in 86. He was a huge, huge playoff performer, Cups followed him around. For that alone, I have argued he is should be in the Hall of Fame. But the Toronto-centred media etc. would never consider it of course.

One of my all time favourites. R.I.P.
I’d take a player like him on my team any day. Would do anything to win.
 
Condolences

He was a nasty player, but 3 teams found that type of player useful in winning a cup.

This is really shocking, given that he was on TV just days ago.
 
yeah. This is pretty terrible - especially if the rumours are true.
They are Stinks

I teared up reading Cowan's article on it.

Suicide amongst men is almost an epidemic and it doesn't get the attention it deserves. The Canadiens should put out an ad like Norwich Town did (it was so powerful)

Dealing with the fallout of middle-age men, taking their lives either by being a counsellor of their daughters or their wives or their mothers, and actually losing a couple of men myself is what drove me from the practice. Moreover, the labelling of traditional masculinity is toxic, and the notion that gender and human behaviour is a social construct and not determine largely by aspects of our biology is a toxin a contagion that is overwhelming, the therapeutic practice such that I could no longer be present in this world I started leaving four years ago and now I’m finally free, but this news just reminds me of how our culture doesn’t support men who represent 75% of all suicides and instead vilifies them for being toxic or aggressive. We can’t blame the victim unless the victim is a dude.
