Are you busted if you aren't charged though? Wasn't the timeline only a few days from when he crossed the border to the Kings at the draft telling teams Richards did a very bad thing? Absolutely I'm not happy about a divisional opponent using one of these long term contracts to their advantage and winning a cup and then trying to get out of their obligations when the deal no longer is advantageous to them. IMO what Richards did was not nearly as stupid as drinking and driving as no lives were put in harm's way and that seems to be a slap on the wrist.
