This is quite an interesting development as there has not been much talk of steroids in the NHL, save the Sean Hill situation last season. One would think it could help mend injuries, increase endurance (workout and skating), and maybe add velocity to a shot(?). I could definitely understand if some NHLers were busted by this since the league doesn’t necessary have anywhere near the size or amounts of scandals as MLB.

I really don’t think Fedorov and Kozlov signing in the KHL should warrant finger pointing. Some 40% of the players in the league are free agents this offseason, meaning there is less money available for aging veterans – especially those like Kozlov and Fedorov who were paid handsomely last year. Also, both of these players were toward the tail end of their respective careers and returning home to Russia to finish it out seems pretty logical.
