Robin Lehner recently filed for bankruptcy after incurring debts between $10 million and $50 million.

Lehner's situation has gotten infinitely worse as he recently missed a mandatory physical with the Las Vegas Golden Knights and it could cost him his entire contract. This is especially bad as his bankruptcy case has just gotten a whole lot worse. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Lehner just had his assets frozen.

This comes following a request from Aliya Growth Fund, whom Lehner and his wife owe $4.8 million to. It was alleged that following his bankruptcy filing, Lehner and his wife engaged in a $1.5 million gambling trip, as well as other luxury purchases. Needless to say, not the actions of someone who is in financial ruin.

Now, Lehner is only able to access $25K at a time and he can only do it for living expenses. Ultimately, Lehner is in a lot of trouble, and with his NHL career in shambles, this is not a good situation for anyone involved. Hopefully, he is able to get his life together, as you never want to see this kind of thing. Especially when that person had the world at their fingertips. It is a cautionary tale of how even a lot of money will not make you wealthy for life.
