Pens prospect Jordy Bellerive hospitalized along with 2 others after “incident”

Some scary news out of Western Canada on this Saturday night, with an announcement from the Lethbridge Hurricanes (WHL) that Pittsburgh Penguins prospect Jordy Bellerive is in the hospital right now, along with a teammate Ryan Vandervlis and a former Lethbridge player Matt Alfaro.

At this point there are no further concrete reports of what may have happened. Three young men all hospitalized at the same time tends to point to some sort of motor vehichle incident, but that’s just conjecture at this point that hasn’t been backed up.

Bellerive, 19, was signed by the Penguins in September 2017 after going undrafted but impressing upon an invite to summer camp.
