Surprising Player Takes Indefinite Leave Of Absence From Team
In a surprising turn of events, the Calgary Flames have released a statement announcing that 25-year-old forward Dillon Dube is taking an indefinite leave of absence from the team.
The official press release was shared across the Flames' various social media platforms, offering minimal details but suggesting a potential mental health crisis for Dube.
The Flames, however, assure that Dube is now in the care of health professionals, emphasizing the need for privacy during this challenging time. Dube's absence during Saturday night's Battle of Alberta, initially attributed to illness, now takes on a more significant context.
The Flames' official statement, provided in full, confirms the seriousness of the situation and underscores the importance of supporting players' mental well-being.
