The Deseronto Bulldogs goalie is currently recovering after collapsing during a weekend game against the West Carleton Rivermen.
Graeme Gemmil went down with just over 12 minutes left in the 3rd period.
In a statement released by the Bulldogs, they say they were fortunate to have many people in attendance that have the professional training to deal with such situations, which included nurses, fire department members and staff.
Gemmil was taken to hospital, but has since been released and will be following up with specialists this week.
Both teams decided to end the game as a draw at 6-6.
