Boogaard’s death caused by mix of alcohol, pain killers by The Sports Network

 The death of NHL enforcer Derek Boogaard has been ruled an accident by a Minnesota medical examiner’s office.

According to the report from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner, the cause of death was a mix of alcohol and the pain killer oxycodone.

No other data will be released.

Boogaard, who spent last season with the New York Rangers after playing his first five years in the NHL with the Minnesota Wild, was found dead on May 13 in his Minneapolis apartment. He was 28 years old.

His family issued a statement Friday thanking supporters and reacting to the results of his toxicology report.

“After repeated courageous attempts at rehabilitation and with the full support of the New York Rangers, the NHLPA, and the NHL, Derek had been showing tremendous improvement but was ultimately unable to beat this opponent,” the family said. “While he played and lived with pain for many years, his passion for the game, his teammates, and his community work was unstoppable.

“Our family would like to like to thank the New York Rangers, the Minnesota Wild, the National Hockey League Players’ Association, and the National Hockey League for supporting Derek’s continued efforts in his battle.”

A seventh-round pick of the Wild in the 2001 draft, the Saskatoon native racked up 544 penalty minutes and 14 points in 255 games. He inked a four-year deal with the Rangers as a free agent last July and appeared in just 22 games during the 2010-11 campaign, as a concussion cut his season short.

Over 277 games with Minnesota and New York, Boogaard recorded three goals and 16 points with 589 PIM.
