ESPN: ASU's Matthew Mayich had heat stroke, lack of oxygen to brain, lawyer says

9/2/26

The Arizona State hockey player and St. Louis Blues draft pick who collapsed in an offseason workout suffered exertional heat stroke that reduced the flow of oxygen to his brain, his attorney told ESPN on Wednesday.

"This injury is from exertional heat stroke that caused a lack of oxygen to the brain," attorney Rob Carey said. "There were no other contributing conditions, only exertion-related heat. This is not an induced coma. We need a miracle."
