Detroit Red Wings’ first overall pick of 2010 Draft Riley Sheahan caught driving “super drunk”
Riley Sheahan, a professional ice hockey player from Canada and a prospect of Detroit Red Wings of the National Hockey League (NHL), has been caught driving the car while he was drunk and would be facing the charges from the police.
20-year-old Sheahan, who will be turning 21 next month, on 7th of the December, was selected 21st overall in the first round of the 2012 NHL Draft by Detroit Red Wings and made his debut for their team in the 2011-2012 season when he played only
one game. He had failed to score any goal, assist or point in that game.
According to the report, the player was extremely drunk and had the blood alcohol. He had exceeded the limit of the alcohol that is officially permitted and was dressed up in a very funny way. He is told to be wearing the ‘Tinky Winky’ costume, which was
a character from the cartoons named ‘Teletubbies’. The cartoons were aired more than a decade ago from 1997-2002, the time when Sheahan was 5-10 years old.
When the Detroit Red Wings’ general manager Ken Holland was asked about the incident, he revealed that they are completely aware of the situation and they will tackle it in their own way. He told that they have talked to their and they are solving the problem
internally without making it disclosed. They made him sit out of the game, as he said while talking to Detroit Free Post,
'I'm aware that Riley was charged with a DUI. We're handling it internally. 'He sat out a game. We've talked to him. We're aware of what's happened.'
The NHL lockout, which has already cancelled one third of the NHL games in this regular season could have some role as players have been out of top action for some time now and it is causing a lot of frustration in them.
The St. Catharines, Ontario native was playing for Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League (AHL) during the lockout and has been able to give some satisfying performance this season by scoring 3 goals and 2 assists in the 15 games that he has
featured in.
