Problem

Jordin started drinking more and more after his brother died. When he moved down to the states he used women to get his mind off of his brothers death. Drinking became a problem but he didn’t see it like everyone else did. He thought that it didn’t affect his game but everyone else saw that it did. When Jordin realized that he was drifting away from the NHL world and the team manager told Jordin if he didn’t get help for his drinking he was going to be off the team. At that moment Jordin realized that he had a problem. He could tell his level of play was going down and couldn't keep up on the ice. Jordin got himself help and his level of play was better than ever before. After his team mates went out and came out he could see what drinking did to your level of play. They just couldn't do what you can do when healthy. Realizing his problem i believe was a big game changer for him and put him on a whole different level.
