Colorado Avalanche Star Shares An Important Message Upon His Return
The Colorado Avalanche faced a setback when star defender Samuel Girard entered the NHL's Player Assistance Program to prioritize his mental health on November 24th.
After a 5-week hiatus, there's positive news from Avs insider reporting that Girard will be back in the lineup against the San Jose Sharks tomorrow. Here's the heartfelt message he shared before his return:
Before his time in the Assistance Program, Girard openly shared the challenges he was facing in a moment of sincere vulnerability.
It's uplifting to see Girard in a better mental space and ready to hit the ice again. Equally commendable is how the Avalanche Organization handled the situation, setting an example for the league.
Remember, mental health is crucial for everyone.
