The co-host of the “La Poche Bleue” podcast and TVA Sports analyst Guillaume Latendresse announced that he took a break from his professional activities on Wednesday to take care of his mental health.
“I am currently going through difficult times mentally,” wrote the 37-year-old man in a message published early in the evening on social networks.
“This has been a recurring situation for several years, probably a symptom of my concussions during my career and I decided to try to resolve my problem this week,” then added the former number 84 of the Montreal Canadiens.
Latendresse indicated that all his colleagues were very understanding following this decision.
“It’s something that I should perhaps have done for a few years, but which I always put off,” wrote the man who is also co-owner of the Saint-Hyacinthe Battalion in the North American Hockey League.
“We support Guillaume, we are behind him and we can’t wait to see him again when he gets better. We wish him a speedy recovery,” said Louis-Philippe Neveu, general manager of TVA Sports.
