Ryan VandenBussche is a former professional NHL hockey player. His career spanned more than a decade, during which he played for the New York Rangers, Chicago Blackhawks, and Pittsburgh Penguins. Ryan would later build a career in real estate, but numerous concussions and injuries suffered during his hockey years led him to substitute cannabis for opioids to treat the pain that plagued him well after his retirement from the NHL. He is now the Founder and President of New Leaf Canada, a cannabis growth and research facility that will educate the community on the therapeutic benefits of CBD.
