from Ed Graney of the Las Vegas Review-Journal,
Schmidt’s case opens up a long-standing truth, that the protocol by which the NHL tests players remains a laughable option for catching those who cheat and, well, perhaps exonerating those who test positive but didn’t.
Of the four major professional sports — none of which come close to owning the credibility of how things are done through the United States Anti-Doping Agency — hockey is the worst.
More than any such past cases, I want to believe Schmidt, as popular and accommodating a player as Vegas has, engaging and introspective and gracious.
But herein lies the issue for an unbiased eye:
Any drug testing program should be evaluated on two factors.
