Ethan was a great teammate, friend, and person. I was a teammate to Ethan this past season with the Winnipeg Thrashers. One of the nicest guys I've ever met in my life. Would never insult anyone and was always a positive voice in the room. Thoughts and prayers go out to The Williams family. RIP - Posted by: Nolan Patrick (Team mate) on: Aug 06, 2014

I just want to express my condolences and say how great he was to be around. Played hockey with him for the Hawks and sat by him almost everyday for the whole hockey season. No matter what I'll always remember the good memories of me and him laughing and talking about random things and how much he loved hockey and was a great teammate to me. And whenever we hung out or saw each other at a party would give each other a hug and say how it was good to see each other and hang out and talk most of the night. Ethan will always be a friend to me and I'll never forget his one of a kind personality. I know he's in a better place and is watching over all of us. Will always be loved like a brother and missed. - Posted by: Evan Loeb (Friend) on: Aug 04, 2014
