We must do more!!! We should not lose our young to su***de.
We are heartbroken to learn about the passing of former Regina Pats goaltender David Reekie.
David was part of our hockey family — a teammate, a friend, and a person loved by many. His loss is being felt deeply across the hockey community tonight. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, former teammates, and everyone whose life he touched.
It’s never easy to find the right words in moments like this. Another young man, another teammate, another beautiful soul gone far too soon. We’ve now lost more than 200 players and members of the hockey world to su***de or overdose that we know of. Behind every name is a story, a family, and a community left trying to understand why.
David, we will remember your spirit and your love for the game. You will never be forgotten.
If you’re struggling right now, please reach out for help. You are not alone. There is hope, there is healing, and there are people who care deeply about you.
Rest in peace, David Reekie 💜💚
