Awful news for his young family.
Condolences to his family (as well as the Gaudreau and Tkachuk families who are likely impacted by this news as well).

Yes, let's pretend it doesn't exist or that long term health issues present itself that is affecting people in their 30s.. it's not BS - it's real, i know people first hand who have these issues

This was the first mention of COVID in this thread i believe, i know we all want to go on with normal life but it is possible.

There are other threads discussing COVID, leave it out of this one.

If it was covid, or anything other than what most of us suspect, it would have been announced.

We live in a reality that this can kill people in their 30s.. Jimmy Hayes died in his 30’s.

I see your point but to get on me for bringing it up as though its so far out of left field or doesn’t belong isn’t fair to relegate to another thread.

This is just a sad story to happen to a young father, end of story for whatever the reason may be.

How about just waiting for them to release the reason instead of assuming with zero actual confirmation? This doesn't need to turn into a COVID debate thread.

It’s really unfortunate for their family, whatever happened, that they’ll have to go through this. Sad really.

On the other hand, these threads are so predictable. No causes of death announced brings on speculation as to what could have happened. Nobody is saying anything unreasonable or disrespectful so I don’t see what’s wrong with the possibilities being discussed, given the ambiguity.

If it was Covid, it would've been front page news around the world.

Who's the worst, the person who speculates that it's COVID or the person/people who are upset they mentioned COVID.

Both are, is the answer.

Both are....

Why not? Lots of depressed people seem fine. One of my brother's friend's dad just committed suicide. He always seemed happy and jovial. He was 70.

It's either overdose or suicide. The cause of death would be public if it were a random health incident.
