  • what a man!

  • @HerrUhyre ...or Colorado fans.

  • @HerrUhyre Probably Sharks fans.

  • How can anyone with a heart dislike this?

  • @dugup46 I was explaining a medical term. Bozo, so it have nothing to do with hating. And it has been BRAIN finction that determines death since Hippocrates (460 BC)!!! Read a book!!! And "Lost Heart function" is a medical term - your heart can stop and you brain does not die. Happens when you sneeze!!!!!!! Read another book!!!!

  • @Earthlinked Why you such a hater hah? It was heart function up until just a few years ago, before they changed it to brain function. And no, he won't play again, he's retired. He had another seizure just a couple months after this one, he gave up hockey. He is staffed with Det Red Wings. Take it easy man, and to say "simply lost heart functions", don't take that lightly.

  • @20003606 yeah constantie that was his name........uhhhh nice try buddy

  • @Gambino199 they also helped constantie a ton after the limo accident.

  • @zippolight2002 NOOOO - he did not die at all - he simply lost heart functions. The definition of death is complete and terminal loss of ALL BRAIN function!!! SO he never actually died!!! You can get 2 - 3 minutes with no blood if your heart stops - not so with your brain!!!!!!!!! When your brain shuts down - YOU DIE!!!!!!

  • @Earthlinked It was a siezure, not a heart attack and he even said in the interview "I did die for 30 seconds, if you count dead as no bodily functions, no heart rate, no breath".
