The more details that come out on the Valeri Nichushkin case, the more questions get raised by fans. After the Colorado Avalanche forward's agent denied that a recent situation where Nichushkin was escorted out of a Seattle hotel room had anything to do with alcohol, new details on the case say differently.

Details obtained by 104.3 The Fan in Denver from Seattle Police state they were called to Nichushkin's room for a "crisis situation" last Saturday morning at 3:45 AM. There, they found a a woman named Irina Prudnikova, who was "heavily intoxicated." She was checked on by an Avs team doctor, and the police report states Prudnikova hit that doctor. He did not want to press charges, noting how intoxicated she was. The doctor ended up calling 9-1-1 believing Prudnikova was simply too drunk to take a cab or ride-share home.

Prudnikova said she was from Russia, but born in Ukraine. She told police she shouldn't have come to America, but a "bad person" had stolen her passport.

What isn't answered in the new details is why Nichushkin wasn't there, and where he went. We know he left the hotel with team security, and that's about it. Where he went, why, and when he'll be back remains a mystery.

Nichushkin married Svetlana Lyuk in 2018. There is no indication that there marriage has ended.
