I have such a giant man crush on him.

I'm trying to find details on the criminal standards for these charges, but the article says 3rd degree assault and a Class 4 felony - which is only the case for 2nd degree assault. It also says misdemeanor 2nd degree kidnapping, but 2nd degree is a felony in Colorado. So I'm not sure there isn't some wrong information here.

The assault charge would carry a MINIMUM 5-year sentence if it is, in fact, a Class 4 felony. Yikes. His career would be over.

Well Roy was charged with domestic violence back in the day but was able to get the charges dropped.

They dropped the word "kidnapping" in the Pens/Bruins telecast. That can't be good.

There's always the KHL.

Pro athlete, I would bet it gets all reduced and no impact on his life

Kidnapping can be just keeping a person in place or transporting them with a threat. It doesn't necessarily mean stuffing someone in a trunk and hiding them.

From looking at the law on both of these charges - I'd guess he might have waggled a gun at someone since a deadly weapon can be a component of both. This is just wild speculation though putting together a common element in the crimes.

I do have a friend in the DA's office in Denver, so if I hear anything, I'll let you all know.

Feel so bad for Varly, but he clearly did something stupid.

was leaning towards "Chip off the old coach",
but I think I'll stick with "How soon until they retire his prisoner number?"

I could be wrong, but isn't that called "Murder - with intent to bury"?

I'm going to defer to you on the subject, IPW. You are the resident expert on bodies and trunks.
