Rick, you had and and always will have a not only talented but loving and caring soul. It's so sad that you left us, but you will never abandon the Canuck franchise. Forever a Canuck. RIP Rick. :)
Rick, I will never forget the kindness you showed me and the way you listened to me without judgement. You are forever remembered and I will carry a piece of you with me forever.
"Even heroes have the right to bleed" I pretty much started bawling right there. Man, I miss watching Rick play. Rest in Peace bud, you will always be a Canuck. <3
Im a flames fan, but, Rypien and the Sedins ARE always fun to watch. Its to bad that nobody could help Rypien. He had so much life left in him. He is always up for a challenge. He has inspired me to set my mind to things and never give up. He has deffinately change me and who i am.
I'm glad there's no idiots bashing this....because since there are so many idiots on youtube, if they even dared to bash this video...I would be so furious
Although I am English, I have family from Vancouver and although I was only ever lucky enough to see Ripper play once, the legacy he has left on Hockey fans throughout, Canada, The NHL and The World will never be forgotten.
It was through the tragedy of this Summer that my cousin back in BC battled through his depression to win himself a place at Minnesota on the Hockey team, Rick, even in death has helped give someone else life, a true heart of a Canuck, I am truly proud to have seem him play!
depression sometimes doesnt show itself til its too late..rest in peace man..you inspire and continue to inspire me..and for this reason i will get help for myself and help others..:\
I was there that night because of the Canucks donation to the children's hospital ... and now that I know the whole story and I've seen it all, I almost cried ... rest in peace
NYR fan here. This brought me to tears last night as a mental health nurse it is so sad that this is happening tp our guys in the NHL (and all over the world) I hope the NHL continues to step up and make people more aware of MH issues. Let's make this a season to remember for the right reasons now! And NEVER forget those we have lost not only for teams but our beloved sport! Wishes with their family and friends!
The song is perfect for a perfect gentleman . Thanks for the memories Rick, by far the hardest working player I could have watched and followed in my time as a Canuck fan. All the best to his family and friends from the Reece family in Hartley Bay B.C
He must have been suffering all alone. So SAD. We will miss him forever. I hope this opens up more eyes to the severity of depression and even though it seems invisible, Its a loaded shotgun.
Cannot stop watching this ..the ones who are loved the most are usually in the most pain. This breaks my heart every time
