answering questions about the factors contributing to Boogaard's death

answering questions about the factors contributing to Boogaard's death : We received one such remembrance from a friend of Boogaard's that currently works for an NHL team:

I have known Derek for 7 years. I'm just really in shock right now. Derek was an amazing person always smiling and joking.

He was such a hard worker if there was an optional day Derek was always there. He thought all practices for him were mandatory. He never took for granted that he was an NHL player. He was really big into charities. Very outgoing. He had a really funny sense of humor. Always making people laugh or lightening the mood.

The funniest thing about Derek was after a game he would leave the arenas dressed like a school teacher with his sweater vests and glasses.
Coming up, a collection of reactions from Boogaard's teammates and opponents as they discovered the shocking news and relayed their condolences — including one from Brandon Prust(notes), who roomed with Boogaard with the Rangers.
