A little late I know but the truth is he died of a heart diease which thikens the muscle of heart. Who am I? His cousin and I have the same heart condition, it runs throughout the Renaud family. Please get it straight, no steroids, no seizures, or any of that other stuff. To the greatest player of Windsor Mickey Renaud.
Hi Mickey I hope u rest in peace up there I knew when I was watching the news I heard it all it hurt me and it hurt ur family we will always think about how good of a hockey player u r well miss u Mick :'(:'(
This video I will always remember forever in my heart miss u mic:(save a spot up there for me I hope that Calgary will win the Stanley cup for u and bring it back to ur hometown peace
One of the nicest people i've ever met. Just a class act all around, now i know what they mean when they say life's not fair and probably one of the best examples of the old saying 'the good die young'
the way mickey died, was he was waking up one morning, getting ready, you know, the usual, and then he either had a seasure, or fainted, but tests are given to another country to see what happened to him...go on the Windsor Star website and it will tell you more
Mickey Renaud had a heart illness known as Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). It is an inherited genetic condition that usually doesn't show up until later in life. The heart muscle is thickened as a result of this illness, and can cause problems with the rhythm of the heart, causing a person to have a rapid heart beat, or for the heart to just stop beating all of a sudden. It is not caused by drugs (including steroids), energy drinks or anything like that. It's a condition that is hidden.
Man mickey when u and i hung out after the one game i knew u were a great person and ill never forget u and i thoughts and prayers are with your family i know i for sure going to miss the times we hung out take care bro
I just wanted to thank MarkJako for putting this video together. I believe that those who knew Mickey would have gotten some comfort from it, for just a second forgetting Mickey was gone and maybe remembering how he was; hopefully striking a happy memory in their mind. And for those who did not know Mickey, like myself, maybe made us feel a little bit connected to someone who was so clearly an amazing young man.
sorry njcianco, but dont you think thats a little strong to say at this time. Alot of people are still going through a hard time right now. Im guessing you never met him. He brightened up peoples days so yes you could say he was a hero. And he was a professional athlete. And you go and bitch about the attention hes getting. If you were a pro athlete going to a higher a level, I guarantee you, it would be the same. So think before you speak. RIP MICK(L)
wow, i can't believe how much support came out for this guy, hes a great hockey player and friend. A loss to the community we will never forget. R.I.P Mickey
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Why is the cause of his death being kept secret? And why is everyone paying so much effort to make this guy into a hero? He was a great guy, sure, but this much attention would never be paid to many many others who are just as great. Perhaps he died from drug overdose? Or something else that is too damaging to release to the public while they make a martyr out of Mickey? I think this is a very "jump on the bandwagon" situation. And I bet alot of you don't like me saying so.
:( damn, the last time i saw him was vs the ottawa 67's not too long ago, that sucks :(, good player gone so soon, he was a great kid. REST IN PEICE MICKEY!! we'll all remember you for a very long time.
The Calgary Flames drafted him.... he had his whole life ahead of him... i dont understand it!! He didnt deserve to die,I new him, he was an amazing person, he never had a bad thing to say about anyone! I cant say it enough times!! We all love him, my heart is with you, the whole Renaud family and the extended Spitfire family,just know in your hearts that we all loved him! R.I.P MICKEY, YOU WONT BE FORGOTTEN!!
well only his family knows. no one else does but i think they are going to announce it after the memorial cup, well at least i think. and the only thing i heard was that he just collapsed at home so damn sad :'(
Ill never forget all that Mickey did for Andrew over the past 14 years, he was a great person and made a big difference in our family. Rest in piece buddy, Ill see you again some day, but until then, Ill keep you in my heart.
he brought this team to where it is right now, what a leader. seriousatheist you got no heart for another human being. i hope next day your father dies and lets see whos there to back you up and support you. god, some people are real idiots. i know how much your family is hurting , rest in peace buddy (L)
seriousatheist you are a disgusting human being, to show no compasion or remorse for a life lost and for his family and for that, you are blocked, goodbye.
fuck u u fucking piece of shit. where is ur life going. i knew this guy. he was so nice unlike ur gay ass self bitch. we love u mickey u will always be in our hearts<3
dude shut your fuckin mouth he was a great guy and had a great future ahead of him. For you to say stuff like that right now shows what a sweet life you have
I've watched this video so many times. Its still so sad. His poor family and those boys on the team - they're all soo0 young. I can't imagine the weight they feel on their shoulders everyday playing for the Spits - now to add this pain.... Its insane. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
I met Mickey almost 10 years, and I can't remember ever seeing him without a smile on his face. He truly was one of the last good guys out there! He was a great friend and an amazing hockey player. To Mark, Jane, Remy, and Penney, all my love is with you right now. You will be missed by all the knew you.
they don't know for sure. . . he collapsed in his home on monday. An autopsy was done tuesday morning but the exact results won't be known for a few months. The rest of it was only released to family. Hope that helps you out.
RIP Mickey I'm sure I speak for the OHL and hockey fans everywhere when I say you'll never be forgotten in our hearts. You were a great person and player. You will be greatly missed.
i'm in that picture at 1:13 right above the pizza pizza sign =)
such good times watching him play, can't believe its already been almost 3 years
miss him!

i actually knew him too:(
his teamates were so sad when they found out.
ive never seen that many guys crying all at once.
i couldnt believe it when i heard.
he was amazing.
had an amazing future ahead of him too.
and his parents were crazy about him.
they usualy sat 3 rows above us and whenever he was close to the net with the puck his mom would scream so loud.
i really will miss that.
