Reason as to why Richardson Stays Positive
Luke Richardson has had a storied career in the NHL on and off the ice. On the ice, he was an NHL defenseman for 21 years and is 10th on the all-time games played list. Off the ice, he coached Team Canada to a silver and gold medal in the Deutschland Cup and Spengler Cup. He has also coached for many NHL teams and was the Assistant Coach for the Montreal Canadiens before being hired by the Chicago Blackhawks last off-season.
However, he has suffered tragedy in his personal life. Richardson lost his child to suicide after being hired by Kyle Davidson in Chicago.
This has led him to make the mental health of his staff and players a priority.
�'Losing a child to suicide, Luke said the overwhelming support he received made the biggest impact.
Because of that, he plans on making sure the players are heard and is pleased with how big of an emphasis the Blackhawks are putting on mental health.''
