Lemieux died of suicide at age 60 on Thursday, according to authorities, after earlier in the week serving as the Montreal Canadiens\u2019 torchbearer prior to a playoff game. He played nearly 1,500 NHL games with six teams from 1983-2009 and was known for his hard-hitting style and ability to perform in big games on the way to winning the Stanley Cup four times.<\/p>\n

The family said it gave the CTE Center permission to publicly share any findings with Lemieux\u2019s name, adding that no conclusions should be drawn regarding any diagnosis.<\/p>\n
