Yea its sad to see young talent die with their entire careers ahead of them like Chris Henry and Alexei Cherepanov (rangers prospect who died in russia for those who don't remember)

Great talent probaly would have become an elite player.

I can't believe that, sad to hear

It is very sad....but puzzling that no one, not even anyone in his family knew about his enlarged heart. There are tons of tests, physicals, etc. that each player must go through when signing a contract...and then again when traded as Gaines was just a while ago.
