Denver Post: Nichushkin involved in incident that prompted police/medical response

[henchman21]

Haven't been here in a loooong time... is there any credible source or information about this incident yet? Or still just baseless speculation?

The police report is credible.

The newest Mad Max (Charlize Theron) was excellent

The newest Mad Max (Charlize Theron) was excellent

It was a great Action-Flick, but there is only one Mad Max Rockatansky :

Have any of you guys seen Troll 2? It's a must-watch in my opinion. It's an excellent first or second date film, if you happen to bring the date back to your place and have time to watch a quick flick.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Perhaps the Avs are demanding treatment and he's resisting.

Ding, ding, ding.

Growing problem throughout the season.

More will come out about this and about some of Nuke's "struggles" this season. Avs will do their best to avoid anything coming out until we are eliminated.

Hope he gets some help and listens to the right people.

The fact that the director's own father watched it with him at the first screening and said right to his face that it sucked tells me it's a must-watch. Someday I'll do it.

The wikipedia page for it is fairly amusing

If he is not open to seeking help, I don't see how the team has any alternative other than to explore legal options with his contract.

Absolutely. Between the Doof Warrior and the Bullet Farmer I was almost rooting for the bad guys in that film because they were so much fun.

Eh, he was awesome in the role but Tom Hardy was perfectly fine. If we're being honest Max is pretty much a one-note character, all the color and characterization comes from everyone around him.

Like I said in my last post, if someone doesn't want to be better they are impossible to help. It's rough for everyone involved

No new info and we’re now talking about movies. Gonna lock this up until actual info.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Going to (reluctantly) open this back up with the Seattle Times article coming out.

Some speculation is going to happen and that’s fine but try to keep it somewhat realistic, and preferably somewhat on topic.

Resume…

Said article:

911 call provides new details on Seattle hotel incident with Avalanche star Nichushkin, woman

A 911 call to request assistance for a woman found in a Seattle hotel room after Avalanche employees checked on forward Valeri Nichushkin states that she had likely overdosed on alcohol or “something got mixed in a drink.”

1. why in the heck do you need to call up a prostitute and do drugs whilst away from home for 2 nights
2. How in the heck is a player that does prostitutes and drugs on game days still one of the best on the team

Nuke is the Jon Jones of the NHL.

I mean… doesn‘t seem like that’d be uncommon league wide.

Someone lookup Nuke's home vs road stats. See if he plays better after some happy endings and coke

Ppg at home… decently less on the road.

So nothing new came from that Seattle Times article?

Bigger discrepancy last season… which begs the question… was this improvement?

So nothing new came from that Seattle Times article?

Three things. Confirmation of woman being in the room and being brought out for treatment. Doctor was asked to call 911 by an unnamed third party. Brought up the idea that she may have drugs in her system beyond alcohol. This was all logically there before… but denial has been there especially on the woman being in his room.

Nope

What are you expecting?

The Avs literally hid him and flew him out of Seattle and ditched the woman in the hotel lobby.

Are you expecting the Avs to give up information on what really happened? Never.
