EP 24 Jeff Friesen — A Stanley Cup Champ Talks Cannabis And The NHL

Coming out of the womb with a hockey stick in hand, Canadian Jeff Friesen spent his whole life trying to make it to the NHL. Eventually, he’d reach that goal, becoming a Stanley Cup champion. In the process, though, he’d acquire injuries that would come to see him on a whole host of medications, and he also received different diagnoses, including ADD, from the NHL’s psychiatrists. An insomniac, it wasn’t long before sleeping pills became a part of Jeff’s prescription regimen, too.  “I was diagnosed with all these things, and it just came to a point one day where (pills) just weren’t the answer. I was on medication after medication, seeing a psychiatrist. It was just never-ending… for me. That was not a road. It was just continual pills, and I really couldn’t find the answer.”  Until, at the age of 31, Jeff started using cannabis to combat pain and insomnia. And ultimately, that’s not all it helped with. In this episode of “Good Dudes Grow,” Gary and Jeff talk about the value of cannabis and CBD as a professional athlete.
