BATHURST, – A 16-year-old prospect for the Acadie-Bathurst Titan junior hockey team has died while skating during a training session with the club.
The New Brunswick team says Jordan Boyd collapsed on the ice and was taken to hospital.
The release says the team’s medical team tried to revive the boy several times while he was on the ice.
The club also says Boyd had a medical evaluation before training camp and didn’t appear to have any medical problems that prevented him from participating.
An autopsy has been ordered.
The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League says Boyd played right wing and had just been drafted this year.
