This seems to be happening too often with players. From the sound of the article he appears to be out of immediate danger but is of course out for the foreseeable future.

Habs (and de la Rose) should consider themselves lucky this was caught now, and didn't happen in the middle of the game like we saw with Rich Peverley or Jiri Fischer.

If there's ever an example of an arena turning into a mausoleum, it's when a player nearly dies on the bench and the game doesn't matter at all anymore.

Hopefully de la Rose recovers.

Why can’t we just be thankful that the young man is alright and that this medical condition was caught in time to ensure he’s healthy and alive?

4 comments in and people are already speculating about a situation they know absolutely nothing about and throwing him under the bus.

 

[Canadienna]

Really sucks for him as he's had a tough time making the roster but finally seemed to be establishing himself as an NHLer this year. Hope he can get himself sorted and come back.

Hoping a praying for a full and fast recovery for De La Rose.

No idea what caused his episode, but I have to say that a lot of these “energy drinks” probably aren’t very healthy and aren’t really regulated or inspected by the FDA. I wonder if the Canadian counterpart of the FDA does?

 

[mouser]

If he's not hospitalized then it's probably some sort of incident such as arrhythmia and they want to do further medical tests on him.

Scary

Young people have heart issues for a variety of reasons.

Hopefully they identify the issue with De La Rose and treat it.

I don't think energy drinks are any more unhealthy than soda and caffeine pills.

Ephedrine is legal in Canada however and not in the us

Get well soon!

I'm no doctor, but energy drinks probably aren't too much more of a factor than regulated stuff like ephedrine and caffeine.

Most of the energy drinks are just so loaded with b-12 you pee out the excess you don't need.

Back to De La Rose, it's good they caught the episode and are looking into it. Depending on what the episode was, there are a variety of tests to help get a clearer picture

Damn, hope he recovers quick. I’ve always been a fan of his.

 

[BLONG7]

Glad he is doing better. Poor kid probably heard Bergevin is keeping his job for at least one more year...yup, heart breaking for Habs players and fans alike...

 

[Afterburner]

Hope DLR is doing better and has a speedy recovery

 

[SnuggaRUDE]

Hopefully it's a panic attack. Scary as hell they often (usually) present as the patient experiencing what they believe to be a heart attack.

 

[Captain Mountain]

Some good news. They caught whatever it was and will monitor him.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Don't mess with heart issues. Scary. McAvoy had a scare too.

 

[Alwalys]

little note from experience that some very common arrhythmias are little more than annoyances and are not especially dangerous.
