Inside the SHOCKING Fall of an Aspiring NHL Star | How Addiction Destroyed Everything
Kevin Corbin grew up in the chaos of 1980s Boston—gunshots, addiction, and dysfunction were the norm. A star athlete who played junior hockey under a former NHL player, Kevin's life spiraled after one arrest derailed his college dreams. He fell into addiction, worked security at biker bars, and ended up in prison after a toxic relationship led to felony charges. But today, he’s nearly six years sober and helping others rise from rock bottom.
In this gripping interview, Kevin opens up about:
His brutal time behind bars and fighting to survive
How addiction stole his identity as an athlete
The near-death motorcycle crash that should’ve killed him
Running from police with helicopters and dogs chasing him
How volunteering, faith, and mentorship through Chucky’s Fight saved his life
Why he believes misery, not connection, is the real antidote to addiction
This is one of the rawest, most redemptive stories you’ll hear. From street fights to soul work—Kevin’s comeback proves anyone can rise above.
