Robin Lehner has nothing to hide about his thoughts on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health.

The Vegas Golden Knights goaltender has been outspoken about mental health, saying there is a stigma at times about the topic in sports.

LVSportsBiz.com explored this subject with innovative psychologist Dr. Stacy Feiner.
