"Maple Leaf goalie Jonas Gustavsson’s heart problems have sidelined him yet again.
Five days into a two-week conditioning assignment with the Toronto Marlies farm club, Gustavsson left the game after the first period of Wednesday’s 9-2 win over the Connecticut Whale. Marlies’ head coach Dallas Eakin told reporters that Gustavsson’s heart rate had accelerated, and that he was removed from the game as a precaution.
The team hasn’t released further details about Gustavsson’s latest cardiac episode, and it’s not yet known whether the goalie — who had two heart surgeries last year — will need another operation."

Alright, that fucking does it. Like I'm tired of hearing about Gustavsson's newest heart surgery every two weeks. I mean the guy's so jacked up out there he can't even keep his heart rate down during a god damned AHL GAME! Nobody really knows what's going on with this guy, and to be honest, I don't think anybody really cares at this point either. Like, best case scenario this guy is a career backup to Reimer after we get rid of Giggy this summer, so fuckin' might as well just keep him on an IV and fucking keep pumping him with the defibrillator on the bench every 10 minutes. Boom, problem solved.
