I wasn't a fan of his, but I knew who he was. It's never good to see a 28 year old athlete pass away. As of now they still have no cause of death, but he was found by his family in his home.

The Rangers Post Season Effort was the cause...

yeah it was... Apologies....

Last time i checked they still didnt put out a press release noting Cause of death, and I doubt they will, as the Funeral is Saturday and the family donated his brain to research head injuries etc.

he did miss a lot of time with concussions recently......

They said they won't release the cause for a few weeks.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was some sort of OD on medication for said concussion.
