Player Collapses On Ice With a Seizure After a Big Hit In Ottawa
Sault Ste-Marie Greyhounds defenseman Luc Brzustowski was involved in a terrifying hit from Ottawa Senators first-round pick Tyler Boucher in a game between the Greyhounds and Boucher's Ottawa 67s. Upon being hit, Brzustowski hit the ice hard, and proceeded to have a seizure.
The Greyhounds have since communciated, assuring that Brzustowski is doing well.
He was in good spirits laughing and chuckling. That's a huge relief.

However, the 19-year-olds future in professional hockey is still unknown.
Hopefully he will recover quickly, and will be able to resume his dream of being a professional hockey player.
