Thanks that's who I was wondering about also. Giguere also had a dehydration problem.

Giguère's nerves were also a contributing factor to severe dehydration problems, which plagued him early in his career.


Once, playing for Calgary in a game against Florida, he lost so much fluid in the old Miami Arena that he became physically ill in the goal crease. The Flames consulted with the sports medicine staff at the University of Calgary, which recommended that Giguère use a water bottle equipped with a straw so he could take in more fluids and less air.


"Over the years, I learned more about myself and what I need to do more of," Giguère said. "To be in better shape, and how to deal with [dehydration]by drinking more [fluids] It's something I go through every day. It's a battle, but it's nothing I'm not able to take care of."
