I know this should probably be in the talk NHL section but right now I feel this is a hockey matter.
During the Dallas Stars game vs the Columbus Blue Jackets, Peverley had a cardiac episode on the bench and was defibrillated to get his heart started. He is currently on his way to hospital but is thankfully conscious. As a Stars fan watching the game, it's been a distressing moment but as hockey fans we all need to send our thoughts that he can make a full recovery. The fact that after coming back around, he asked to play shows his brilliant character.

Hope that Pevs is okay and manages to make a full recovery!

Also Flames Matt Stajan Has taken a leave of absence after his baby died shortly after birth.
Puts things into perspective.

I wish him the best of luck for a full recovery, sounds like the Stars' medical staff have done a fine job.

Massive credit to the stars medical staff. They've saved someone's life and credit also to the NHL and Columbus who made sure that the game is played in the correct spirit by postponing it. People are calling for Pevs to hang up the skates now and selfishly of course I want to see him play again but if this is the end of his career, he can hold his head up high. He's got a Stanley cup win under his belt.
As they say life goes on and the boys have to lift themselves for the game against the Blues tonight - hopefully they'll put the shirt on play for rich tonight.

Strange season. Letang is still recovering from his stroke. Good luck to Peverley and Letang.

Apparently first thing he said when he came round was, how long is left in the period

As a Stars fan, was nerve-wracking watching the game just stop, and the look on the player's faces told it all. Cole was in tears on the banch. Hope for a speedy recovery Pev!
