Patrik Laine and his fiancé are launching a new mental health campaign called 'From Us To You' to raise awareness.
After being admitted into the NHLPA's players assistance program last January due to reported mental health issues, Patrik Laine is stepping up in a massive way to help address the issue.
The Columbus Blue Jackets winger announced the initiative on his Instagram page Monday. The two said they made the decision after people reached out to Laine over the past months, sharing their own personal stories and the importance of speaking out while dealing with mental health.
NHL enthusiasts around the league are commending the star forward for his efforts to raise awareness for this growing issue in professional hockey.
