Robin Lehner threatens Gary Bettman amid frightening social media meltdown
Las Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner is currently having a scary episode on social media and he has gone so far as to threaten Gary Bettman.
Robin Lehner is going through a lot in his personal and professional life right now as he is facing large amounts of alleged gambling debt, as well as the threat of a release from the Las Vegas Golden Knights.
He has not played in over two seasons now, and it seems unlikely that he would ever return.
Robin Lehner takes aim at the NHLPA and Gary Bettman
Unfortunately, things are going from bad to worse for Lehner as over the last few days, he has been having a truly frightening meltdown on social media.
In his tweets, he takes aim at the NHL, while alleging that the league is engaging in shady conduct.
One of these messages even sees him directly attacking the likes of NHL commissioner, Gary Bettman.
"I'm the truth that hockey is the most toxic culture in all of sports. The players and staff know the idiot I've been. Lucky I have not done it alone. How come hockey never been in the news for drugs and criminal activity. Nah we just the white league that are better and behave better then all other sports.
Gary get ready. What I'm coming with after you had a jolly good time the reality you will have fun suppress. But your watch dogs won't win me and if they do tell them to come well prepared. Folks and fans I'm willing to destroy my self for truth. Let's start with the ambien and c pac use for organizations."
From there, Lehner goes on to say that the league allowed him to use drugs and never helped him out.
He even seems to think that the league is encouraging this behavior from its players.
"How I did drugs my whole career and never got one single phone call when I came to USA at 18 escaping my past and I never thought I got out in a bigger criminal empire then what I came from. Research west coast family in Sweden that I grew up in since 4 years old. I thought that taking the flight away when I was 18 to just get introduced to the crazy shit called the nhl.
I will admit to my crimes and won't hide my part. Now it's about truth and people are coming with me for saving my children that had no part in it. Around the 26-27th panda lawyers come out and we are going to court with the public media which is you the people. Hate me and say to change my meds. When the nhl helped me pay the extortions against my sister and kids. I will go down with them. Dm me if you're interested to help."
The goaltender is promising to go after the league, once and for all, although he also claims that his family is in danger.
"But I will post everything you need to knew about our fucked up sports and no lawyer can bury me with lawyers. I will eat them alive as I can't give to shits about what happens to me. My children will never see me again. If you guys think I'm that kind of man that do that like the nhl program told me with marlow and Dan Cronin the last days then give your heads a shake."
Whatever the case may be here, it is very obvious that Robin Lehner needs help.
Hopefully, the NHLPA steps in and gives it to him.
