  "account": "On November 7, 2026, in a game between the Los Angeles Kings and the Pittsburgh Penguins at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Pittsburgh's rookie goaltender Sergei Murashov achieved his first win of the season, defeating the LA Kings 5-2. Following the game, Murashov expressed his gratitude to teammate Devin Cooley, the Flames' starting goaltender, for his willingness to speak out about the mental health challenges faced by goalies. Murashov stated, \"I want to pass a media message to Devin Cooley. I saw he was really popular recently, and like most of the goalies are going through something like he’s talking about, but not a lot actually speak aloud.\" Murashov added that Cooley's message helped him, too. On Monday, Cooley responded to Murashov's public acknowledgement of his efforts. \"I did not see it, but I heard about it from multiple people telling me,\" Cooley said. \"I heard it was awesome, and I’ve gotten messages from other guys in the league, too, who have reached out. I’m like, 'that’s really cool.'\" Cooley concluded by expressing gratitude for the positive impact he can have beyond just playing the sport he loves.",
