    Ramblings today hit on this.
    I think a team will take him--unfortunately. He'll be an asset and someone will sign him as a result.

    If he is cleared someone will sign him. He still has a lot of hurdles to get through though.

    He'll probably be allowed to play in the US because hey, Trump. But what about Canada? I think people in Canada have a bit more sense at least.

    I'd be curious to know if there are any hurdles for getting a Canadian work visa as well. I know it generally takes a little longer for NHLers in general, so I'd be curious if there's any extra red tape in that process.

    Edit: Just to add to the discussion, I think the only reason he will find someone willing to sign him is if a team thinks his arrest was long enough ago that people have forgotten the severity of it, so the team can spin some kind of "he's not that guy any more" media narrative to keep from seeing backlash.

    Putin will call his puppet Trump on the red phone and voila! Voynov is pardoned and given citizenship and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

    Two different leagues, two different situations. You can't compare apples and oranges regardless of where anyone stands on the issue morally.

    Ray Rice's wife did as well. Pretty sure their bank accounts have a bit more to do with it, let alone all of the psychological aspects that all domestic abuse victims go through. It's terrible that Voynov will get another contract, but it's gonna happen. The interesting thing will be how his new teammates will treat him, it could fracture a locker room or the boys can turn a blind eye who knows. People totally do have a right to earn a living, but at the upper echelon? Generally, rehabilitated criminals have a hard time getting a job let alone a contract that will set them up for life. Morals should be something the owners apply here, but they won't, winning trumps all unless there's a video tape.
