"Took something"
Automatically saved draft
NHL professional Aaron Ekblad has failed a doping test and has been suspended for 20 games by the National Hockey League.
The player of the defending champion Florida Panthers spoke out in a statement from the players' union and accepted responsibility. There were no further details on the nature of the doping offense. Ekblad said that he was shocked by the result of the unannounced doping test.
"In the end, I made a mistake and took something to help me recover faster from my recent injuries without clearing it with the medical and team staff first," said the 29-year-old defender. The Canadian will miss the remaining games of the main round for the defending champions and is not expected to return to the ice until a third playoff game.
