If there's "substance abuse" then there must be proper (and okay) use of substances, right?

Like, "wife abuse" = not okay, "wife" = okay.

“I’ve been informed that I am being suspended for 20 games under the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program.

While I haven’t been able to discover how I tested positive, I understand that I am responsible for what is in my body and will accept this penalty. I want to apologize to my family, my teammates, and the Golden Knights organization and fans.

I will work hard during my suspension to ensure that I put myself in the best possible position to contribute to my team when my suspension is over.”
Yeah Zykov didn't write/say that, sounds like a communications editor wrote this on his behalf lol.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Poor Biega, he was sent down too. Here he and his agent thought they had something worked out. I feel for the guy.
The only HW the Canucks need

Always makes sense to compare RFA and UFA contracts. :thumbs:

You're catching on.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

I don’t have some past history of constantly comparing UFA and RFA contracts as far as I’m aware.
Whatever helps you sleep at night though.

Gudbranson could well be out of the league after this deal expires. If nothing else he will be playing for a massive haircut in pay if he does manage to stick around. The guy would have been a good player 25 years ago. Way too shitty of a skater and too dumb to succeed in today’s game.
