“And people wonder why hockey players, professional athletes, are not talking,” Ullmark said. “Why we’re not showing any sort of emotions. Why mental health in men and in women are a stigma.

And I can’t defend myself. I didn’t know about this until days later.
“And it sucks because I have a family. I have a wife, I have kids. I get sent text messages asking, like, ‘Hey, are you guys good?’ I’m like, ‘Yeah, why? And then they tell you about the rumors. And you’re like, ‘What the f— is wrong with people?’
