McKay has been suspended 6 months for PEDs. He was tested because he was an alternate goalie for the Beijing Olympics.

He was looking at 4 year ban, but apparently the USADA accepted his explanation (and proof) he took contaminated supplements.

Would have been interesting to see what they would have done if Minnesota State had won the NCAA championship with him in net. Also hard to believe that the NCAA didn't know about this yet let him keep playing.

I am usually pretty skeptical when athletes claim they didn't know, but it really sounds like in this case, there is a lot of evidence suggesting it was completely accidental.

You mean the Marlies' playoff run in 2023?

Because he signed an AHL contract, and he can't even begin that until his six-month suspension is over. He's eligible to play on Oct. 11.
