Episode Details

Montreal Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki hosted his annual Heroes Golf Tournament to raise funds for the Asista Foundation, which rescues dogs and trains them as service animals for those with PTSD, autism, and anxiety. Suzuki, who relies on his own service dog Ruby for emotional support, highlights how these animals transform lives — like Flavie, a therapy dog at L.I.N.K.S. High School, who helps students with crisis intervention, speech, and motor skills. The event, marked by a symbolic helicopter arrival, underscores the importance of mental health support for all — veterans, first responders, athletes, and everyday people. Suzuki champions the idea that heroism is universal: anyone can be a hero by lending a hand, embodying the foundation’s “A Hero Within All of Us” mission.
