Paul Stewart: Philly Got a Good One in Jay O'Brien

Great story about a difficult struggle that you overcame. It is also quite relevant in these times when so many people are taking their lives. Thanks for sharing, Stewy. And yes, as a Flyers fan, the more I learn about Jay O'Brien, the better the pick looks.

Good stuff Stewie..


Im happy to see the Flyers may have gotten a gem in Jay O'Brien, but I am happier to see his family helped you to stay around longer for us to enjoy watching you ref and reading these blogs.

Thank you for sharing your tough times with us. It is never easy to open up about one’s mental health. In these current days, it is even more important and impactful to share these stories for those who struggle with their mental health so they too can speak up and find the necessary help like you did along the way. It is never a proud moment realizing or knowing you need help, but in the end it is a proud feeling and moment looking back knowing what you overcame. Thanks again!

Thank you Paul for the difficult and yet uplifting story. Lots of respect!

Stewie, it takes a big man to expose, and overcome his demos. You have done both, and should be extremely proud of the person you have become. Kudos Stewie!! Two huge thumbs up my friend!!👍👍

Thanks for sharing this Stewie, I know it couldn’t have been easy. Very glad you overcame your struggle and I’m very much looking forward to seeing O’Brien in a Flyers sweater in a few years.

Thanks for sharing. Putting a light on these things is impactful. Well done.

Amazing and courageous to share that much of yourself and your struggles. Congrats on that and for making it out.
