The Colorado Avalanche will be getting forward Valeri Nichushkin back next season.during a press conference ahead of Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Vegas Golden Knights and Florida Panthers.
This came into question due to a situation where Nichushkin had been held out of the lineup ahead of the Avalanche’s Game 3 matchup against the Seattle Kraken due to “personal reasons”. It was later found out that an intoxicated woman was found in Nichushkin’s hotel room in Seattle, and was transported to the hospital for further care.
There are also several instances of audio being cut out in the footage, so there are still plenty of unknown factors involved. One instance was when Changstrom alluded to something about Nichushkin’s medical health being involved. Bettman and deputy commissioner Bill Daly applauded the Avalanche for how they handled the situation, and also confirmed that no NHL investigation would occur.Nichushkin got into 53 regular season games this season, scoring 17 goals, 30 assists, and 47 points in 53 games. He only played in two playoff games for the Avalanche, and only scored one goal in their Game 2 win before departing for the remainder of the series.
