The more we learned about the incident from Colorado Avalanche forward Valeri Nichushkin's hotel room, the crazier it gets.
More On Valeri Nichushkin
Last week we broke the news of the police footage from the Seattle River Police that was nearly 40 minutes long. That took place during the first round of the Avalanche vs Kraken series.
Now the NHL has handed down their decision on the matter. Hockey Insider Elliotte Friedman revealed that was said from Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly.
"Daly says there is no NHL investigation into the Valeri Nichushkin incident, that it was handled "appropriately" by Colorado and he is eligible to play. Police cam footage was released earlier this week."
This was probably, the best decision, as I'm sure Nichushkin is probably embarrassed enough as this could of been part of the Hangover movie. The NHL doesn't want to give this story anymore attention then it needs.
