MAJOR: Canucks Medical Team Facing Serious Allegations
In January, Vancouver Canucks' General Manager, Patrik Allvin, assured fans that Mikheyev would be set to participate when the 2023-24 season's training camp commenced. However, unexpectedly, Mikheyev left the camp within a few days citing 'personal reasons'. It's currently uncertain whether he'll commence the season on injured reserve, stirring speculations among fans.
Playing Injured
This sudden turn of events led to a growing suspicion among fans, who believed that the Canucks might have allowed Mikheyev to continue playing last season longer than they should have. This, according to them, could be the reason behind Mikheyev's current state of unreadiness.
Investigation Initiated
Adding to the intrigue, not long before Mikheyev's shutdown, an investigation was initiated by both the Canucks and the NHLPA about the way Tanner Pearson's injury was managed. The culmination of these two incidents pushed Dan Milstein, Mikheyev's representative, to issue a clarifying statement.
Now, with the statement out, speculations arise whether it was prompted by the Canucks. However, if Mikheyev's absence extends for a few more weeks, fans will inevitably raise questions again.
