Best wishes to Sammy G, hope he gets the help he needs for whatever it is! Some things more important than hockey! Take care of whatever is going on and get back on the ice soon!

Statement from Sammy:
« I have made a proactive decision to take care of my mental health, and will be entering treatment for severe anxiety and depression that has gone untreated for too long and led to alcohol abuse. Taking care of your mental health is of the utmost importance, and I encourage everyone to speak up and seek help should you feel like you need it. I want to express my gratitude to my wife, family, friends, the club, my teammates, and the fans for their patience, understanding, and continued support. »

Thank you Sam for helping all of those who suffer break through the stigma that we are weak. We are not — we have an invisible disease and we can heal. Wishing him all the very best in his journey to recovery, I’m a bigger fan of his today than I ever was. Sending love to you Sammy!!!

So you know dogging this guy for years and saying he is dog shit can in fact lead to depression and anxiety. Not saying we are the problem but we certainly haven’t been showing him love either.

Proud of you Spinny boi. I’ve always defended him here when the critics pipe up cause I honestly believe he brings so much upside to our game that people don’t realize. He plays a risky style but he opens up so much opportunity for our boys.
