Michal Neuvirth Released from Hospital After Collapsing, All Testing Was Normal

Rob GoldbergApr 2, 2017

The Philadelphia Flyers have announced goalie Michal Neuvirth has been released from the hospital Sunday after all diagnostic testing was found to be normal.

Neuvirth collapsed on the ice during the first period of Saturday's game against the New Jersey Devils. He stayed in the hospital overnight.

The front office believed the issue could be related to an illness.

"I don't want to speculateโ€”he's had a little bit of a chest cold, there's been a few things going around, there has been all winter," general manager Ron Hextall said, perย Tim Panaccioย of CSN Philly.ย "We sent him over to the hospital for precautionary reasons, everything so far has been good, things are positive."

The 29-year-old has played for four different organizations since first appearing for the Washington Capitals as a 20-year-old in 2009. He has made 28 appearances (24 starts) for the Flyers this season in his second year with the team.
