I am shocked and saddened by this news.

It's with sadness that I just learn the passing of Steve Montador. He was 35 years old. He played 571 games in the NHL.

Former NHL player Steven Montador was found dead inside his Mississauga home early Sunday morning, according to Peel Regional Police.
Police said a female friend woke up at 2 a.m. to find Montador deceased. She contacted police and he was pronounced dead just after 2:30 a.m. at his residence.
"Foul play is not suspected, pending the outcome of an autopsy," said Const. Fiona Thivierge, a Peel police spokesperson.
At this time, Thivierge said, the incident is being treated as a sudden death investigation, not a criminal investigation.

Steve Montador's death believed to be a suicide. He suffered from concussions and depression. Difficult financial situation too I'd heard.

On Montador: There's an updated report from police it was natural causes with further investigation coming. If so I apologize to his family.
