Do You Think Derek Boogaard Killed Himself?

Question by Cuts like a knife!: Do you think Derek Boogaard killed himself?
if you don’t know, derek boogaard of the rangers and minnesota wild was found dead friday…
he was in the NHL drug counseling thing for drug abuse and had a few concussions… a lot of people are speculating suicide but i don’t think so, what are your thoughts?
shame on ME? get over yourself old man, i read in the official report this morning that he was in fact, in the program it’s all over the news mr. know it all. i never speculated suicide, i said i disagreed with it. it is a horrible thing for his family and of course hockey fans or not, we are all very sad about their loss. stop being so self righteous.
holy shit get off my back already you loony toons! guess what, IT WAS THE NHL LEAGUE REPORT that i read, and in the SAME paragraph that they said his family donated his brain, that he was in the program. there’s nothing wrong with me openly saying he was in the program, at least he was getting help. i hate adding additional details you but some of you make me so frustrated

Best answer:

Answer by Quizzard
I think it is a vile thing to even begin to speculate about. There has been no official word about him being in the Drug Abuse program, and for people to speculate and spread rumors show no courtesy to his family.

Shame on you.
