## Resource

The hockey world is in mourning after the shocking death of Claude Lemieux, the fiery Montreal Canadiens legend who passed away at 60—just days after serving as a torchbearer for Game Three of the Eastern Conference Final. Reports confirm his death was by suicide, a devastating blow compounded by the fact he appeared happy and healthy just weeks ago. A cornerstone of the Canadiens’ 1986 Cup win and a key figure in the Avalanche’s first title, Lemieux’s intensity and passion left an indelible mark on the game. Former teammate Patrick Roy called him an “exceptional” competitor and teammate, revered by peers and feared by rivals. His passing is a sobering reminder that mental health struggles can hide beneath a strong exterior—and that we must all be more present, more compassionate, and more willing to reach out. Our hearts go out to his family and loved ones during this unimaginably painful time. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
