it is probably the most talked-about mystery in the National Hockey League in recent days, and there is new information about Valeri Nichushkin.
As a reminder of what we knew up until now:
After the Colorado Avalanche's weekend game against the Kraken in Seattle, Nichushkin suddenly left the team for personal reasons (not due to injury or disciplinary action).
Nichushkin only left the team urgently, and was accompanied by security to the Seattle airport, where he took a flight to go "somewhere."
In the last few minutes, here is what Frank Seravalli has revealed:
I'm working on this story. It's difficult because we have to define boundaries between the player's personal life and what can be publicly revealed.
From what I understand, there was an alcohol-related incident that occurred and I don't know what the next steps are and I don't know how serious it is, but it's clear that something happened at the team hotel on Friday night, and it required the Avalanche organization to get involved
Something is going on, I don't have all the details, but I'm working on it.
He is also working to untangle what he should mention publicly and what should remain private.
It is also learned that Nichushkin is not expected to return anytime soon. He will likely be absent for the long term.
