PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Penguins defenceman Kris Letang will play on Wednesday night against the Detroit Red Wings, more than two months after suffering a stroke.
[b]Pedro Geromel Brazil Jersey[/b] . General manager Ray Shero says Letang has been cleared by team doctors. He says it was the 26-year-old Letangs decision whether to play again this season. Letang hasnt played since Jan. 27. He suffered the stroke two days later. Tests revealed a small hole in his heart, which doctors say could have contributed to the stroke. The hole hasnt been repaired, but Shero says the team is confident playing hockey didnt cause Letangs stroke. The 2013 Norris Trophy finalist has 10 goals and eight assists in 34 games this season for the Penguins, who have already clinched the Metropolitan Division title.

Ronaldo trained with the rest of the team for about 15-20 minutes doing physical exercises but then did not take part in the rest of the session with full ball drills. Instead, he stretched on his own and signed a few shirts for fans before going to sit on the bench. When he left, he had an ice pack over his left knee. Ronaldo has been bothered byy left leg injuries ahead of the World Cup, and was sidelined for two weeks with tendinitis in the knee and a thigh problem.

"Ever since he started to train with us he has been 100 per cent like the rest of us," Moutinho said. "Everything is fine with him but there is some caution, not only with him. Today many other players were using ice as well. There is nothing to worry about. The ice is normal after training." ' ' '
