One of my all time favorite goalies. So sad.

 

[Philadelphia Ducks]

He was one of my favorite players and goalies. I remember watching him in the OHL when his team played in my town. One of the few hockey jerseys I own is his. Sad sad times. RIP.

so sad. way, way to young to go.
had his whole life ahead of him.
condolences to the Emery family.

R.I.P Emery, if he never had hip issues, I believe he would have had a much longer career and would be highly touted.

35 years.. damn.

This is f***ed up, reading he jumped in the water at a yacht club in Canada... you'd expect other people to be around, and um looking for him immediately?

From fox news:

"They went out for a swim and unfortunately he did not emerge after diving in," Hamilton Police Inspector Martin Schulenberg told the Spectator.

Damn it’s tough seeing a young guy pass away.

A little off subject but hopefully Carcillo has some support right now after losing another friend. He seems to be spiraling.

May have hit his head on something and was knocked out. It’s tough to go down and find someone without gear. Sorry for the morbid thought.

This is tough to read.

Rip Ray. Terrible to see someone go that young.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Man... what a tragedy.

RIP, Rayzor.

 

[sabremike]

One of my all time favorite goalies. So sad.

The Philly media awarding him the 3rd star that night was the best part. That would only happen in Philly which is why I love your city so much. Guy legit had a screw loose and was a troubled soul, I just hope he is finally at peace.

Happened in our hometown. My uncle was a friend of his stepdad. Tragic loss.

 

[Freddy The Fog]

Horrible. RIP. Condolences to his family and friends. Way too young.

just terribly sad news RIP Razor

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

reading the story on yahoo and the tweets about the man. not gonna lie. tears in my eyes.

 

[gertbfrobe16]

rip ray. sad when someone this young dies so unexpectedly.

 

[David St Hubbins]

Incredibly sad. Terrible for the family too, such a shock

 

[Ruck Over]

This sucks. I met him once at Tavern on Broad, when he and Carter were both injured. He was a fun player. That thrashing of Holtby was wrong by so many metrics, but I enjoyed it and thought it helped the team that year. He was one of my favorite Flyers, and just favorite NHL players. The fast start in Ottawa, the exile to the KHL, the successful comeback, injury and rehab, and a win to get his name on the Cup.

RIP Razor, you will be missed.

 

[Cody Webster]

Just heard he played in Rinaldos charity game last night, that's terrible.

He was a never give up goalie and always battled. He'll be missed
