The Arizona Coyotes are poised to sever ties with player Adam Ruzicka following the emergence of a troubling video on his Instagram account. Elliotte Friedman broke the news, indicating that the Coyotes are likely to waive Ruzicka with the intention of terminating his contract.
"We will get clarity closer to waivers in an hour, but expectation is Arizona is going to waive Adam Ruzicka for the purposes of contract termination," Friedman reported.
The leaked video, showcasing Ruzicka engaging in illicit activities, has sparked outrage and prompted swift action from the Coyotes. With the team in the midst of the season, such behavior is deemed unacceptable, warranting immediate consequences.
