National Hockey League (NHL) Deputy Commissioner Bill Daily commented on the scandalous episode with Russian forward “Colorado Avalanche” Valery Nichushkin. The incident occurred at the end of April when a drunk girl was found in the room where the striker was sitting at the hotel.
“The NHL is not investigating the case with Valery Nichushkin. “Colorado” responded “correctly” to him, Nichushkin has the right to play,” journalist Elliott Friedman said on social networks, as quoted by the Daily.
Seattle Police Department published Body camera footage of Officers Ryan Beecroft and Joshua Knight arriving at the Colorado players’ hotel during the Stanley Cup games against Seattle Cracken in April. When club employees went to look for Nichushkin, it was learned that a 28-year-old woman named Irina was discovered.
He was extremely drunk in the actor’s hotel room. Team doctor Bradley Changstrom decided he was too drunk to leave the hotel alone and called 911. The girl told the arriving police that she was born in Ukraine but lived in Russia before coming to the USA. She also reported that she received the passport of the man who was with her at the hotel. After that, she suggested the police check the CCTV cameras.
Following the incident, Nichushkin did not play with the Seattle Kraken in Game 3 of the first round of the NHL playoffs. He has not appeared in the team since.
The girl, who had previously been found drunk in Nichushkin’s room, judicial his “liar” and “bad guy”.
