"On behalf of our family, we want to express our sincere gratitude for the love and support shown to Damar during this challenging time. We are deeply moved by the prayers, kind words and donations from fans around the country," the statement said.

The NHL’s Buffalo Sabres also changed their Twitter avatar to photos of the safety’s jersey number with "Pray for Damar" written at the top.

The team also shared a video with players wearing T-shirts that say "Love for 3."
