Denver Post: Varlamov turns himself in to police *Read Mod Warning Post 23 & 275*

[Landeslog]

Causes awkwardness in the locker room, screws up Varly mentally, Giguere becomes starter

You realize that depending on the severity of what he did he could get jail time, right?

 

[Ruston*]

I guess I was right about Giguere's role as Varly's mentor being overblown.

 

[henchman21]

It is impossible to speculate until we have more details on what Varly is facing. I doubt this has a huge impact on the season unless Varly did something really dumb.

 

[foppagirl21]

Oh damn, this is not a good situation. I'm quite shocked over here.

All I hope is that no one got hurt.

I think the fact that he turned himself in is reason to speculate enough. I have no idea what it means. I feel like that could point to either extreme

The good thing is that it wasn't so bad it was immediately called in by a third party. The bad news is that it was bad enough that Varly felt the need to turn himself in.

First thing that comes to mind: Hope he is okay, and anyone else that might have been involved.

The second thing:

Is it bad that I laughed when I saw this?

It's probably nothing it'll blow over in a week.

 

[Landeslog]

As much as this could possibly suck for the Avs, I hope whomever the victim was is okay

Yeah, violence against women is simply hilarious...

Yeah, that's pretty terrible.

 

[Foppa2118]

Ah man what the hell? This does not seem in character at all for Varly. Just when things were going well, and there was just a story on TSN about Patty going out of his way to skate with him during practice to tell him how proud he is of him.

Could be that he feels he has nothing to hide?

It could easily mean either one or something in between. Hard to know at this point... More details will emerge soon and we will know a lot more.

I heard there was hospitalization ... that's why he turned self in. (I'm sorry if that's rumor -- my mom called me and said that was on the news, so it's third hand, but I think it's better than rumor.)

Crap.

 

[BlackRedYellow]

We have no proof of the gender of the victim or even a hint outside of the crime itself. It's not funny if it's against a male or a female, either way.

 

[TheStranger]

That he seriously injured her (hospitalization) and gets jail time.

Why does there have to be a her involved? I havent seen a fact of "Varlamov's girlfriend beaten, Varlamov arrested"

 

[Unaffiliated]

Said wtf out loud when my score app told me this.


Hopefully it's all a misunderstanding

 

[Muffin]

Who says it's against women? You're jumping to conclusions.

 

[AvalancheFan19]

Depends in what context. I originally laughed at the fact that just when things are looking bright, this happened. Hopefully everything turns out to be okay for Varlamov and whoever else is involved.

 

[henchman21]

Could be that he feels he has nothing to hide?

Just as easily as it would be that a local hospital turned it in. We will all know soon enough.

 

[Avsboy]

Cue the Ryan Miller to Colorado threads...

 

[SB]

True, but domestic violence involving a pro athlete almost always involves a him and a her.

 

[CalderKing21]

I'll wait til all the details are out to truly comment. But what is the deal with Denver teams this year? So many run ins with the law.
Hopefully this is just a misunderstanding and doesn't become a big distraction.

I'm I missing anything here?
