those two are some of the strongest human beings alive. I’m so proud to call him captain, and proud that our team has risen up behind his leadership

I’m not crying, you are.

Heartbreaking. That’s a really tough loss. I wish them nothing but the best moving forward.
It’s so SO hard to lose a child, even one you never got to meet. You’ll always be wondering ‘what could have been’…
I hope they’re able to heal and find solace together.

That post made my eyes water. Fuck I can’t even imagine. This would explain so much why Dahlin hasn’t been himself this season. Not only did his wife almost die, but they lost their child too 😢

I could not ask for a better captain. No one would have blamed him for taking the year off after this tragedy, but he came out and played. I’m sure the whole team’s respect for him as a leader is stronger than ever!

Didn’t peg r/hockey to bring out the tears today. Fucking gut wrenching. Feel so bad for them.
NOISY_SUN
I’m so out of the loop, what happened?
MrBigChunguz
God now I’m a Sabres fan. Brutal stuff. Very strong people.
Poughy
Fuck man. I still think of Dahlin as a little kid but he’s gone through more than most old men at this point. Nothing but respect and love for this guy forever.
noyvey
fuck that’s tough.
Mr7three2
Hate that for them. Not much worse than losing a child, unborn or otherwise
MajesticCrunch
Oh jeez. I feel awful for them. That is so hard.

My sister is being induced this evening. Terrible outcome for Dahlin and their fiancé.

If there’s anything that never fails to make me choked up, it’s the displays of love a parent does for their child
RefereeMason1
What a strong woman. I can’t even imagine dealing with anything like that.
ShibariDeathmatch
What a tough go at it they had in 2025. I hope that this year brings them nothing but good things.

Wow this hit hard. Shedding a tear for them and sending out all the positive thoughts for their family.

Such a heartbreaking post. That’s a horrible thing to have to go through.

God bless Rasmus and his wife.

Reading this gave me chills 😭 I’ll be covering them in prayer, I could not imagine. Heart failure, losing your child… 😭😭😭 sending them all the love

So heartbreaking 💔 sending all the love and support.

I want nothing but nice things for our captain.
Two brave humans to push through that tragedy.

This situation gets worse every time we hear about it, jesus christ. I feel so much for these 2.

Sending good vibes their way.

My god, how do you reckon with that feeling?
Feeling off and getting checked out for the child’s sake, only to lose them as your body failed, but you’re alive because of them.
ArkAngel8787
They are so strong. I’m so sorry for their loss 💔💔

I’m at work and this made me tear up. Fuck. Now my co workers are going to think something is wrong.
When I get home. I’m going to give the biggest hug to my lil guy.

My girl and I had 2 miscarriages last year it truly is heartbreaking ,
De_Floppss
Its really tough for me + the mrs because our first could have potentially shared the same birthday as my wife, so now her birthday packs a punch to the gut of what if.
3 miscarriages later, and we have a beautiful baby boy 8 months old right now. So much pain and grief still lingers, and my heart goes out to couple who has had to cope with the grief of a miscarriage. Words really do not suffice
ilovetrouble66
Absolutely devastating. I had no idea they lost a child through all of this too.
Reminds me of the James Blunt song where he sings about his and his wife’s experience on their own miscarriage.
Glacious
Man. Rasmus is such a beast for being able to perform as well as he has with all this going on in his personal life. His mental fortitude must be incredible. He’s really gained my respect and I wish him and his family the best in what must be such a tough time for them
birdiebro241
Oh that just gut me. That poor woman and everything she has had to go through this year. The same for Ras. I hope things only get better from this point on.
ellipsis-eclipse
Honestly, I can’t believe he’s even been playing this season. What a horrible, difficult thing to have happen. Wishing nothing but the best for Dahlin, who’s been such an amazing captain, and his incredibly strong fiancée. So much respect for both of them.
secrets-quirrel
Man that’s horrible. Lots of love for this guy, his wife, and all the people in their lives who were affected by this loss, which they will never fully recover from. The loss of a child is one of the most painful things to experience.

man both EP and dahlin losing a child before birth, rough

What a beautiful, profound post with such a honoring perspective to the baby that they didn’t get to meet.
In life we don’t always get to understand why things happen, but choosing to honor their baby’s memory in this way is really remarkable.
Dahlin is a great Captain and seems to be an even better husband. I wish for good health in their future and can only hope to be as graceful in life as the Dahlin’s have show themselves to be.
great_save_luongo
My wife and I have been through 5 miscarriages and a chemical pregnancy, plus many failed IVF transfers. I know how awful this kind of loss is and, like others have said, stigmatized it is for no real reason. I’m grateful Dahlin and EP40 shared about their experiences despite the pain they are enduring- maybe it will help others going through the same thing seek help and support when they need it. Thoughts and prayers.

FWIW symptoms of heart attack in women are different than men. Worth a [read](https://www.heart.org/en/health-topics/heart-attack/warning-signs-of-a-heart-attack/heart-attack-symptoms-in-women) may save someone’s life
