This is big news in MN. On Friday a 14 yr old Bantam AA player collapsed and died minutes into an ice hockey tournament game. There was no contact. He simply collapsed on the ice.
I wonder if the boy had an aneurysm, a weakening/eventual tearing of an artery. Assuming there was no prior illness, because of the youth's quick collapse and the inability of EMS to restart the heart, it seems this might be the cause. If it was an aneurysm, there would have been little to predict this from an otherwise healthy and active youth. Very sad.
