So eerie, I was surprised no one on Twitter seemed to mention it. First thing that came to mind. Remember this game well being from Detroit. Wishing best to Jay.....
Jay went down in the same place and in the same fashion. Both players were near the right end of the bench in front of the tunnel and both fell forward. Both men had just finished their shifts as well. These unfortunate incidents are eerily similar. #prayforjay
I remember seeing that live, and my heart sunk when they brought that lady across the ice (i thought it was to say goodbye) and skated the stretcher away from Jiri. I thought he was gone.
Just highlights the importance of knowing CPR. A skill everyone should have. And make a mental note of where the AED is located when you go different places (school, work, or somewhere new)
I was at that game with my family when he had the heart attack. Scary things happen all the time. After that, there was a fight in the parking structure in the vicinity of the Joe Louis Arena (drunk people). It was in November of 2005.
@meds613 Also, there as an AED right near the bench. The NHL changed some rules after this to mandate AEDs in every arena and for team physicians to be very close to the bench. That may be why Fischer survived, but Alexei Cherepanov did not.
only way he survived (glad he did, obviously) is because he is in the NHL. They have some of the best doctors on hand, ready to act immediately. If this happens at your local rink, or any incident like the one on Zednik, you're dead.
@@SamSam-tf4wh It was the weirdest game ever, The game was normal and then all of a sudden I look over with my Dad, pads and such were flying all over the ice, a stretcher was on the ice and they took Fischer away, he looked white as a ghost. We all went home after the announcer said they called the game.
It doesn't mean your heart stops every time. Medical attention is indeed needed though. When I was still a child my mom had a seizure at home and it's pretty scary but it was nothing serious.
This can be applied to everyday life though. I can say that if you're walking home alone you could going into cardiac and die it really scares me because i have a heart murmur and suffer from epilepsy.
Toby Rutter We all die eventually bud, don't let it control your life like it has mine. I suffered a seizure backstage at a set a few months back and actually had a heart attack a couple days later with no history of seizures and heart problems in my family. Sadly ive kind of let the fear control everything in my life and its not good. Im only 24
I was there and I was scared to death. I was speechless and was a nervous wreck. I'm so glad they did a makeup game. But it sux that they counted the damn Nashville goal. :((
Honestly someone surviving going into full arrest is rare. Coming back and not being a vegetable is more rare. And coming back using no drugs and just cpr and aed is a 1 in a trillion.
he was young and athletic, and the doctor who was doing compressions said he likely went into V-Tach or V-Fib, meaning his heart wasn’t flatlining. the odds of him surviving were definitely not that slim, especially with everyone there to act quickly.
I remember watching that game live on TV. Crazy and scary as hell!!! I actually will always have respect for Buffalo fans. They were very respectful. Hockey fans really are the best!
Hmmm! Game cancelled, and RIGHTLY so, after a player had a heart attack! Flash back to 1972 Munich, Germany! ELEVEN athletes MURDERED and the games went on!!! Makes no sense!
Damn watching the players rush the stretcher then his fiance to him made me tear up.
ibieiniid me too!
AMEN!
I wonder if Shanny tried to steal Jiri's wife the way he stole Craig Janney's wife.
red wings were focused on guys like jiri Fischer Jonathan Ericsson and Mike babacock in Crosbys draft year..... #nhl
Bouwmeester collapsing tonight brought me here and to the Rich Peverley video.
Same!
Same

@@thatguyaric2534 the timing is within seconds of being at the same time as well.
No wonder they were in a panic, they had to get his gear off to start compressions. Those men are heroes 👏🇺🇸
I'm glad that they brought his fiance out and escorted the stretcher
Yes, these machines are so important. Even an amateur can use them and they can save lives.
Yup auto defibrillators are absolutely essential to every sport venue, they’re so easy to use literally anyone could, and they work.
Wowwww not wings fan but Stevie y was a great capitan and that just shows here!

disability is all these idiot guys have in their life

When a team goes through stuff like this, it makes the team very united and strong.

Wow, never knew about the fight. Classy people........who does that after an incident like this?

That may be why Fischer survived, but Alexei Cherepanov did not.
Miss the old NHL network!!
when I saw them doing CPR on him, I lost it :-'(
Love how when Stevie took the stretcher the doctor almost fell
Wow Fischier is very very lucky.
11 years ago omg time flies.
That's so crazy! Glad he's alive! Just think how his family was feeling at this point!!
Yes. Depending on how severe the seizure is. For example a prolonged loss of consciousness could be potentially life threatening.
only way he survived (glad he did, obviously) is because he is in the NHL. They have some of the best doctors on hand, ready to act immediately. If this happens at your local rink, or any incident like the one on Zednik, you're dead.
Uhh there are defibulators at almost every rink in usa.
i was 9 years old when jiri Fisher heart stop on nov 21 2005?
Wings nation praying for Damar Hamlin.
Hoping he pulls through like Fischer did!
Not a seizure. A cardiac event. CPR and AED save lives.
Seizures can cause cardiac arrest
watching this gives me a weird feeling in my chest
I can’t believe I was there with my Dad. It was weird
that would be a wild game to watch. what was it like when the game was called?

My dad was at this game.
I was there also
patrick perry What was it like?

It wasn't a seizure, they originally thought it was. He actually went into cardiac arrest.
From November 21st, 2005.
(The game was postponed to a later date.)
Some stations in Ontario (Canada) have PSAs on with a clip of the game. They're pushing for auto-defibs in all hockey arenas.
12 years on, defibs are everywhere now, including arenas
This can be applied to everyday life though. I can say that if you're walking home alone you could going into cardiac and die it really scares me because i have a heart murmur and suffer from epilepsy.

Look up the word 'stoic' in the dictionary, and Mike Babcocks name and face appears.
Lol wrong!
uh yeah your heart stops prety life threatnening
Very tragic. I love the sport buy hate the ugly side.
I was there and I was scared to death. I was speechless and was a nervous wreck. I'm so glad they did a makeup game. But it sux that they counted the damn Nashville goal. :((
Is this like the 8th video on RUclips?
It's unpleasant for everybody players heart attack its worries me.
miss the old NHL network?
deffo and I second that Go Wings! :-D

I was thinking that
Jiri
no a pulseless arrest
Sadly, that will not happen, however...or at least I don't see any doctor clearing him. He was very recently transferred to the Wings' front office.
No, a seizure is when there is uncontrolled electrical activity in the brain.
I'm just here because
Ditto
V No, he has officially announced that he wont be playing in the NHL again.
ayo been a while eh?
Actually a seizure is when the flow of oxygen to your brain is interrupted, so it was only cardiac arrest.
laidida only? Fool
jiri
Like Zednik?

Collpases??? Dude at the least sound it out if you won't google it.
Lol epic comment
Don't trust Brendan Shanahan around your wife or girlfriend. Just ask Craig Janney.
ROFL BAB CAWWKKKKKK ROFL but sucks for Jiri
Didnt the game get cancelled anyways after the incident?
watch the video
I like how you uploaded this 13 years ago and still haven't bothered to figure out if you spelled "collapses" correctly
Jay bowmeester also collapsed with 7:50 to go in the first period
