Confirmed with Link: Ekblad Suspended 20 Games For Performance Enhancement

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Completely hinged response


Ekblad Game 3 of the playoffs

The Natural Disasters!

Why not? You don’t think it’s reasonable given this? How is what he did sportsmanlike?

There should be a strong justification for him keeping it.

No, I think many of the takes about the suspension are ludicrous.

Man people on facebook are wild lol. Apparently Ekblad married a doctor just so he could have free access to steroids to cheat the oilers.

And she is also, not a woman, True Story.

This picture of Schmidt from yesterday boarding the plane to Boston is so perfect given what occurred right after.

 

[Two4Fighting]

We need an additional 962 500 to activate him. The easiest thing would be to send down Samo but he is only 925. We could try some combo of our old fourth line but that’s also risky

We can put Barkov with Forsling and move Kulikov to the first line. Brilliant, I tell you!

If it’s TRT then it’s pretty clear cut and he should be removed from a leadership role. If it’s something that he truly didn’t realize would be an issue then it’s different.

It’s gotta be TRT I would think

We will see how the team feels about it upon his return.

Be feeling pretty good being 2-0 up in the series.

But this is pretty common for recovery no? It just if you/your doctors are stupid with the dosage then you are at risk of getting caught and suspended.

It was discussed on the Ray and Dreggs podcast and they don't make it seem like much of a moral/leadership issue, never comes up. More about how guys need to be careful to follow the guidelines. Ek's just being viewed as stupid, not necessarily hurting the game or cheating.

Crazy news to wake up to. Dumb move to bypass the medical staff...

He knew it was PEDS and that is why he intentionally bypassed the team trainers and doctors

Yes, he was at a speed dating function and the first question was are you a doctor and the second question was, do you have any PEDs that I can can hide from the team medical staff. Alas, a romance began

Fake news. Ekblad and 'speed' have not been seen in a room together.

He used poor judgement. Lets not turn him into some monster over it.

Sharing is caring, Aaron. I’ll take some of that TRT if you don’t mind.
