Massive update regarding the status of Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang, who suffered a stroke 10 days ago.
The veteran suffered his second stroke in the last eight years, which is due to a heart defect he was born with. However, just 10 days after his latest, Penguins reporter Taylor Hasse has shared some amazing news.
''Here's Kris Letang practicing with the team 10 days after his stroke. Incredible.''
Letang is in his 17th NHL season - all with Pittsburgh - and although he's regressing with age, is still playing well. The 35-year-old has registered one goal and 11 assists in 21 games this season.
