There was speculation somewhere that it might have been a shoulder aneurysm.
Had to be something freak like this.
Wouldn't an aneurysm need immediate emergency care?

Ok so it's as reliable as the one I heard about him getting attacked by a mountain lion and contracted rabies.
Gotcha.
Arters Irbe was attacked by his dog Rambo. It fouled his play for life and they put the dog down. #wierdshytehappens
A. Bitten in the neck by a vampire.
B. Brian Strait is a vampire.
Don't even want to think what happens when you're bit by Brian Strait.

What the hell happened. This definitely is medical not physical.
Heart attack
Anyurism
Cancer
Blood clots
WTF IS IT
There may be some truth to the post about HIPAA laws.

I am ok with privacy even if there is no law involved. That said, if it was a HIPAA thing wouldn't that force every team to not report every injury?
And I am not trying to pester. I really Don't know.

I'm currently in my last year of medical school so maybe someone with more experience can comment but at his age you don't really get a cerebral aneurysm unless it's congenital and even then there are usually other symptoms that probably would be noticed (marfinoid habitus as mentioned or PKD). If that was the case, however, even a burst cerebral aneurysm which is obviously life threatening could be treated if caught immediately.
I don't believe he could have had a dissection. He would need to be involved in some heavy trauma for that to happen and as far as I know nothing like that happened in any of the games he was involved in.
Perhaps he had some heart condition. Something like Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is often asyptomatic and goes undiagnosed and is usually the culprit when you hear of an athlete dropping dead in the middle of a game. There is a possibility of being symptomatic before it gets to that point, however, if diagnosed I would think it would force early retirement. The fact that Staple hinted he may return at the end of the season probably makes this unlikely.
OK - so who had blood clot? You get 10 internet points. I really thought my mountain lion attack was going to come through.
Its interesting that Stamkos goes for surgery and its reported and only after that is Pelech's condition revealed. I understand not reporting on it the day of, but after the dude has surgery, what's the need for secrecy?
The Stamkos injury and disclosure only highlights how dodgy this organization is.
