It could be another case of CTE which lead to his dep;ression and suicide.
Pepe was terrific, really stepped it up come playoff time. One of my all time favorite Devils.
Geeze, suicide. Why?

During the 1995 offseason after the Devils won the Cup and he won the Conn Smythe, he did an autograph signing at Woodbridge mall. I still have the hat and puck I got him to sign, and although I don't remember actually meeting him, I do remember that he stayed beyond the time the event was scheduled for and made sure everyone in line got to meet him. I was only 7 years old but that really stuck with me.
He’s 9th all time in playoff goals. He might belong in the Hall of Fame.
Shame !
Heard he was in Montreal on Monday for a pre game ceremony !
Sad of his circumstances!
A great player and savage competitor !

I was shocked to hear this because I just saw him in Montreal the other night. Damn shame.
Remember him as a rookie when he scored the Game 7 OT winning goal against my Whalers in the Conference final in 1986. The Canadiens would go on to win the Stanley Cup.
Reports are Claude hung himself. Ugh
Watched an emotional Ken Daneyko interview on NHL Network last night who was friendly with Claude
Ken was very shaken up as one can expect !
Wish people would reach out and get help when getting suicidal !

In addition to the loss of a great person, the worst part is the family and close friends left with a sense of "what could I have done or said" to prevent what happened. Recently went through this exact situation, and it is torture. This news dredged up the terrible feelings. It's a little more than the person who took their own life not asking for help. It's checking in on your friends and asking how they are doing and telling them how much they mean to you. Preferably in person or on the phone. . . .
Very eloquently said and my condolences on your loss that you’re referring to !
Claude was a Montreal Canadien icon. Good memories of playing with and against him at the Canadiens Xmas parties. A real good guy.
