Letang Stroke!

How can a man so young and in such great physical condition continue to struggle with strokes?
Terrible news.

I guess heredity can be a blessing and a curse?

I read that concussions can lead to a stroke and he's had many over his long career. Hope he recovers quickly.

He has a hole in his heart that never closed up from birth… it leads to minor strokes

He may be done. These only progress and can do damage.

Sucks. God bless him.

Really sorry to hear this. I listened to the game last night and they said he was out due to sickness. A buddy of mine had a stroke due to a hole in his heart in his early 40s. They patched him up and he's been in top shape ever since. Hoping for a similar recovery and with Tanger I'd expect him to get back on the ice as soon as possible.

Read that he is practicing and close to returning.
