It is still unclear what caused Matthew’s death, as his network did not provide further information.
Back in June 2021, Matthew announced on his Twitter account that he was fully vaccinated.
Tributes have poured in following Matthew’s death.
“The Leafs Nation team is heartbroken to share the shocking and tragic news of the passing of Matthew Rodrigopulle.
“Matthew joined our team in 2020 while finishing up his degree at then Ryerson University, now Toronto Metropolitan University, and we were privileged to have here for over a year before he went on to pursue one of his career goals of being on air journalist, which he did for Global Regina,” Leafs Nation said.
This is terrible news. I had the privilege of being a teammate of Matthew in my brief time with @TLNdc and I’m just in shock. https://t.co/geSGB0FWN1
