(Official) Around the NHL 8.0

Because he didn't commit a crime..nor was he accused of commiting one.

He did commit a crime and has since been charged. The issue is he didn't tell the team about his arrest/detainment and it came out while they were in trade talks. Which the Kings and the NHL agreed was cause to terminate his contract.

What crime did he commit? I thought he had just failed some sort of drug test.

Possession of ecstasy and cocaine IIRC

I see.

That's a pretty different ballpark than what Kane is accused of though.

Pretty sure it was possession of Oxy.

 

[Lunatik]

it is different and unlike Kane and Voynov, Richards never reported his legal problems to the Kings which he is required to do.

 

[Lunatik]

Meanwhile in Brooklyn.....

Good. Start him off early before he develops more of an attitude.

Believe you are correct. It was Stoll who got caught with Coke and Ecstasy.

Apparently he has been a model citizen through the development camp in July and through rookie camp.

Good on em for not letting that type of behaviour continue. Hopefully the kid can get it together, he is very talented.

It does make you wonder why he was late though. Like, imagine if his rental car broke down or something and now he's cut.

That would be the worst

I guarantee if it was a legitimate excuses he wouldn't have been cut.

Idiotic move by Ho-Sang. He slept in, Im waiting to see if he runs his mouth to the media now.

Was it actually established that he was late because he slept in?

Is that from "Left Shark - The Real Hollywood Story"?

He stays up too late playing video games, and sleeps in.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Oilers apparently ink Klefbom to a 7 year extension for just north of 4 million. He's played 80 NHL games.

That's a massive risk for someone with a grand total of 77 NHL games.

 

[Gritty]

Wow, that's a lot of faith in a guy who's only played 77 NHL games. He looks like he has great upside, but 7 years north of 4million is quite the commitment.

I'll admit, Klef looks like he could be a solid #3-4D who logs big minutes.

 

[tmurfin]

That is an insane commitment for someone who isn't proven.. In two years it could look awesome, or it could look horrible.. Either way, 7 years is a long time when you have A LOT of young stars to hold on to
