Since the end of last week, a mysterious story has sparked discussion as Colorado Avalanche forward Valeri Nichushkin suddenly left his team.

He was escorted by security to the airport to take an unknown flight to an unknown destination and since then, no news has been released. This scene is concerning.
According to information shared yesterday by Frank Seravalli, journalist and informant of Daily Faceoff, Valeri Nichushkin's situation is related to an alcohol incident at the team hotel, which required the intervention of the Avalanche organization due to the seriousness of the situation.
However, Nichushkin's agent, Mark Gandler, denied this information in a recent interview. According to him, the situation of his client is not related to alcohol. The case is to be followed.
Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar said that Nichushkin will not be in uniform for the game #5 between the Avalanche and the Kraken tonight.
