Really? Where is you inner lawyer? I can practically write Bettman or Lombardi's press release right now.

In regards to the matter concerning LA Kings player Slava Voynov and his arrest and incarceration for Domestic Abuse, we the NHL/LA Kings find the matter to be regrettable but we do not involve ourselves in criminal matters.
Slava was charged, convicted and served the amount of time that was deemed appropriate by the State of California. He deeply regrets this incident but he has served his time and made amends with his wife and as such no extra disciplinary action will be taken by the League or the LA Kings.
