跟进：企鹅队前锋金德尔已返回匹兹堡：晕厥确认为血管迷走性发作，列入伤病名单
宾夕法尼亚州阿勒格尼县匹兹堡企鹅队总经理 Kyle Dubas 10 月 22 日表示，前锋 Ben Kindel 在盐湖城住院观察后已返回匹兹堡，目前正在球队训练基地接受治疗与检查。
据路透社 10 月 22 日报道，19 岁的金德尔本周二在球队包机从盐湖城起飞约 10 分钟后突发医疗状况，飞机随即折返备降，队医先行处置后由救护车送往当地医院观察。Dubas 透露，金德尔晕厥的原因是“血管迷走性发作”，据约翰斯·霍普金斯医学院介绍，这是一种因血压和心率突然下降导致脑部供血暂时减少的常见良性晕厥；他在机上吸氧后恢复了意识。
Dubas 说，医生已在周三批准金德尔返回匹兹堡，由留在犹他州的球队工作人员陪同。球队已将这位 2025 年 NHL 选秀第 11 顺位新星列入伤病名单，并将遵循严格的复出指引，若进展顺利，他最快有望下周恢复训练。金德尔本赛季出战 9 场，得到 2 球 2 助攻；新秀赛季 77 场贡献 17 球 18 助攻。企鹅队将于周四晚主场迎战佛罗里达黑豹。
Follow-up: Penguins forward Kindel back in Pittsburgh; fainting diagnosed as vasovagal episode, placed on injured reserve
PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania — Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Kyle Dubas said on October 22 that forward Ben Kindel is back in Pittsburgh after being hospitalized in Salt Lake City, and is at the team's facility for treatment and testing, Reuters reported, in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
Kindel, 19, had a medical episode about 10 minutes after the team charter departed Salt Lake City on Tuesday, forcing the plane to turn around and land; team medical staff cared for him until emergency technicians from a waiting ambulance took over. Dubas revealed that Kindel fainted due to a vasovagal episode — formally vasovagal syncope, "a common, generally benign type of fainting caused by a sudden drop in blood pressure and sometimes heart rate, which temporarily reduces blood flow to the brain," according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. He was given oxygen on the aircraft and regained consciousness.
Doctors cleared Kindel to return to Pittsburgh on Wednesday, accompanied by staff who had stayed with him in Utah. The Penguins will place the 11th overall pick in the 2025 NHL draft on injured reserve and follow strict guidelines for his return; he might return to practice as soon as next week. Kindel has two goals and two assists in nine games this season, after 17 goals and 18 assists in 77 games as a rookie. Pittsburgh hosts the Florida Panthers on Thursday night.
