Tonight, Jakob Chychrun and his aunt and uncle, Stephanie and Luke Richardson, partook in puck drop for the Ottawa Senators' #HockeyTalks Night. The Richardsons founded Do It For Daron (DIFD at The Royal) in honor of their daughter Daron (Jakob's cousin) who lost her life to suicide in 2010.

#DYK 7️⃣0️⃣% of people with mental illness see their symptoms begin before 18? Our adolescent years are a time of so much change so it’s crucial to pause and prioritize your mental well-being💜 Even if it's just hanging out with friends or journaling, every small step matters 💜

In honour of #BellLetsTalk day we're looking back on our Hockey Talks night presented by Bell Let's Talk. A night that began with a special puck drop with the Richardson's and DIFD at The Royal, and ended with the Senators Foundation raising more than $40,000 in support of youth mental health.

The entire hockey world, and so many of us, are saddened by the passing of Shawn Simpson. His dedication to mental health advocacy helped break stigma and inspire change. Our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones. Let’s honor his legacy by continuing the conversation 💜
