‘Many Sabres have told me that they didn’t know Lehner’s battles with mental illness and addiction. The Islanders goalie said, “It’s been great from everyone there. I miss everyone, all the teammates in Buffalo, they’re incredible people, but that’s one of the big things when it comes to both mental illness and addiction, we’re very good at suffering in silence, we’re very good about going about our own business and try to hide it because the reality is that’s the stigma, we don’t want anyone to see, everyone has issues and don’t want to show it because it’s going to affect your professional life, it’s going to affect how people think of you because people do think of you differently.”’
