The day after the Edmonton Oilers' defeat in the Stanley Cup Final, a sad message from Connor McDavid's wife has surfaced.
In a touching and emotional report, filled with both joyful and difficult emotions, Lauren Kyle opens up about her daily life.
She reveals that while the love of her life was battling to win the Stanley Cup, she was facing a very different battle of her own.
McDavid's wife explains that people might believe NHL players' wives live "a picture-perfect life," but that's far from the truth, and they too experience very real and painful struggles.
She admitted that things have been very tough for her at times recently, especially due to long periods of intense solitude.

It's safe to say a vacation will do them a world of good.
"While Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers were facing the Florida Panthers in the Stanley Cup Final, Lauren Kyle was battling something else at home: loneliness."
Lauren Kyle gave an emotional statement about the toll this season took on their family.
She talks about the unseen struggles that go on behind the scenes, because players and their families are separated for much of the year-and that time apart can be even longer depending on playoff participation.
"There's misconceptions around being a hockey wife and that's just an easy narrative for people to chime into. People assume that it's really easy. Our husbands are playing hockey, making money.
But it's actually very difficult. There's a lot of stress. There is such a strain on your family. People don't know about the struggles that are on the inside I just quiet that noise, because there's a lot more positivity than negativity out there.
