Boris Sádecký (20 April 1997 – 3 November 2021)[3] was a Slovak professional ice hockey player who played professionally for Bratislava Capitals of the bet-at-home ICE Hockey League.
On 30 October 2021 Sádecký inexplicably collapsed on the ice in the final seconds of the first period of a game against the Dornbirn Bulldogs, and died in hospital on 3 November.[4] According to his relatives, he suffered a mild heartburn on the day of the collapse. And during hospital examinations it was found that he had an inflammation of the heart which potentially lead to cardiac arrest during the game.[5]
