Theo Fleury s plan to better support mental health Dave Sandford/NHLI via Getty Images Nobody knows what I ve been doing since I left the game, Theo Fleury says. Everyone thinks I m still this crazy person with problems and issues, but I ve actually been trying to figure it out. Fleury last played in the NHL in 2003; he was suspended by the league for violating its substance abuse aftercare program, and never returned afterward. The winger, a 1,000-point scorer and Stanley Cup champion, previously entered the program voluntarily in 2001, seeking treatment for addiction. Fleury, then with the Blackhawks, said he was approached by those around him, saying they heard rumors that he was struggling with abuse of drugs and alcohol. There were tons of people wanting to help, but I wasn t ready for the help, Fleury said. That s part of the equation too. Ultimately, every time I went to treatment, I was saving my job, saving my marriage, doing it for everyone but myself.
