“I Own All of It” – Aaron Ward on His Gambling Addiction, the Cost to His NHL Career and Life, and Recovery

Hockey Press Pass

In a raw interview, former NHL defenseman Aaron Ward shares the complete details of the depths of his gambling addiction and how it led to his arrest after a domestic incident (later expunged) and enrollment in the NHL/NHLPA Behavioral Health Program. You’ve likely never heard anything like this before from a hockey player about gambling — including placing bets on football in the middle of playing games in the NHL. There wasn’t a question the former commentator for TSN and current radio analyst refused to answer.
