Last week, Hockey Latest reported on the release of police footage regarding an incident in the hotel room of Valeri Nichushkin, a forward for the Colorado Avalanche. <h2>NHL Hands Down Ruling On Valeri Nichushkin</h2> In case you missed it, the Avalanche's team doctor discovered an extremely intoxicated woman in Nichushkin's hotel room, while Nichushkin himself was strangely nowhere to be found. Many people believed that Nichushkin should face punishment from the NHL for this incident, which occurred during the first round series between the Avalanche and the Kraken.
