Peverley done for the year. Will reportedly undergo a procedure in Cleveland to correct the arrhythmia. I'm guessing that means an ablation at the Cleveland Clinic. You often need more than one ablation to completely eliminate the episodes. Assuming a successful ablation, I would think he has a decent chance of returning to NHL- unless there are insurance issues etc.
Ablation is considered more of a procedure than a surgery- is not open heart surgery. The cathodes they use to zap the heart are actually inserted in the groin area!
