I'm confused, has he been in the program before? I know Nichushkin entered the program in mid-January.

Per the report he was prior under the old naming:

I was under the impression you could enter the program once for each nostril.

He did so voluntarily in 2019 after a positive drug test for cocaine while playing for Russia at the 2019 IIHF World Championship.

But not when filmed using cocaine in a hotel in Vegas, right?

Two games tonight following the All-Star break, and of course the NHL schedules them for the same start time. Unbelievable

Oh hell no.

No relief for players going into the NHL Player's assistance program but teams get relief for these r*pists?

Oh hell no.

No relief for players going into the NHL Player's assistance program but teams get relief for these alleged r*pists?

There should be cap relief in both cases - Also, I added a word to your post above.

Oh hell no.

I'm fine with it so long as they penalized the Canucks.

 

[esls79]

So the Flames, Flyers, Devils and Blackhawks get cap relief. Math checks out.

Who knew it was contagious. Well, at least the crusty part.

SACRE BLEU!!

Does that translate into blue balls?

 

[puckhead]

Does that translate into blue balls?

literally means "Holy Blue"

i suspect it comes from something similar to rhyming cockney (I said pardon?)
a bleu rhymes with Dieu, which means god.

I was going for the visual similarity to blue sac.

As long as you didn’t think blue waffle… we are good.
