Die traurige Geschichte um Boogaard wird wieder aufgerollt. Die NHL, die Rangers und die Wild werden laut hockeyfans.ch verklagt. That makes me unhappy. Da kommt alles grad wieder hoch. frown

Die News ist aber schon ein paar Tage alt wink
Die Boogaard-Family beklagt, dass Derek von der NHL, den Teams und den Ärzten falsch betreut wurde bzw. die Betreuung vernachlässigt habe.

“Due to his ingestion of an inordinate amount of pain medications prescribed by N.H.L. team physicians, Derek Boogaard became addicted to opioids,” the suit alleges.

It states that the N.H.L. “breached its duty” to Boogaard by, among other things, failing to monitor his prescriptions or establish proper procedures for administering and tracking them. It alleges that the substance-abuse program knew that Boogaard violated its rules many times — including a series of failed drug tests in his final months and his admission that he sometimes bought painkillers illegally — yet never disciplined or suspended him, as program rules dictate.

The lawsuit also says that the N.H.L. should have known that “enforcers/fighters” had increased risk for injuries, concussions and addiction. “On numerous occasions, the N.H.L. allowed and encouraged Derek Boogaard, after suffering concussions, to return to play and fight in the same game and/or practice,” the suit alleges.
