Read in a bunch of places that Chris Simon died last night. 52 years old. Some reports say suicide, but others say wait and see. No matter what, that's far too young.
RIP Simon!

Not making a joke, but I put it in here because he played for so many teams, I couldn't pick a single team forum.

Very sad. He made a very potent scoring line with Joe Sakic and Scott Young back when he was with the Avs.

Definitely a fan favorite who played with more than a little edge. That edge also got him in a lot of trouble too. Sadly, I think it also played a part in his death. Rest In Peace, Chief.

So sad to see all these beloved tough guys go through so many problems later in life. They brought so much joy and happiness to people's lives. The league and PA gotta take care of these guys as best they can.

Not only later in life but during their careers as well. RIP.

Given what that slimebucket Daly just said when recently asked about the overwhelming evidence linking head trauma to CTE, we won't see that anytime soon.
