he can survive in his bunker for years.

NHL & NHLPA announced Colorado's Valeri Nichushkin is now in Stage 3 of the Player Assistance Program.

As a result, Nichushkin will be suspended without pay for a minimum of six months, then can apply for reinstatement.

Wtf
- AGalchenyuk27

quite the bad timing, holy.


so apparently he failed a drug test..? does the league randomly make players take such tests in the regular season? if they did you'd think a lot more guys would be getting caught, although maybe a lot of them are ahead of the league and are able to get negative results despite being high AF on something.

not sure about other players but pretty sure a guy who has been through the drug program is gonna be tested at random.

it would've been more impressive if he had done it but not in a rags fan's face, given that they're playing at Madison square garden.

I don't think they're linear stages that all players in the program need to go through, it's the measures taken that get more intensive if there's a violation concerning their treatment.

Ahhh ok. Sorry, I retract my previous statement then.
