Show Notes
The former NHL goalie opens up about his difficult childhood and the OCD that helped him professionally but ultimately almost ended his life. He shares about his anxiety, depression, alcoholism, suicide attempt and the PTSD from a skate to the neck that almost caused him to bleed to death during a televised game in 1989. Clint has survived it all and more importantly gotten the help his "cowboy" upbringing had stigmatized for years as "weak". Clint's book is called A Matter of Inches (in Canada it's called The Crazy Game).
