(NHLer) Tyutin defends Varlamov, blasts American laws
Fellow Russian and NHLer Fedor Tyutin has stepped up for embattled goalie Semyon Varlamov, bashing American laws that he says favour women.
“It’s just American laws are on the women’s side, that’s why they can go to the police for any little thing, complain and bring a lot of problems to men,” the Columbus Blue Jackets defenceman told Russian outlet R-Sport.
Varlamov allegedly threw his girlfriend against a wall before stomping her in a drunken rage last week.
The Colorado Avalanche netminder was later arrested on second-degree kidnapping and third-degree assault charges stemming from the alleged incident.
“I personally know Semyon very well,” Tyutin said. “He is quite a true, considerate guy. As soon as I heard it all, I realized that it was blown (out of proportion).
“The only mistake of Semyon is that he got together with this girl.”

FYI Toronto Sun is ground zero for people who have no problem with a crack smoking mayor.
