Compared to yesteryear, mental health is a very important aspect of today's world of living.  It is just as important for everyone, regardless if you are feeling or think you are feeling "okay" on a daily basis, there are still underlying issues and traumas that sometimes talking to a good therapist just straightens out and makes better.

This is probably why the team therapist for Montreal is the most important non-coach advisor to John Peanut for the team.  Its bad enough to deal with the trauma growing up, but as an adult size peanut bodied hockey player, there's more than enough ridicule to go around.  Despite the toughness of his outer shell, some of the commentary that comes his direction hurts, and while some retribution is easily handled on the ice with a well placed hit or puck steal, some things can just eat away at a person and if left unchecked can become a ticking time bomb for bigger issues.  Mental health is no joke and should be assisted accordingly.
