Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang recovering from stroke - NHL.com - News

Per the article above, Kris was not feeling well before the Penguins played the Kings and after some tests they found a small hole in his heart. Not expected to be life, or even career-threatening.

Article also says that we are all born with this hole, but most people's hole fills in as they develop. I have never heard of this.

Pretty scary if you think about it. Dude is what, 26?

Hope he recovers, he is a lot of fun to watch.

Very scary, glad it isn't as bad as it could've been. Wish him the best in his recovery.
