I really hope that this is not serious enough that he loses playing time. This is one kid I was really looking forward to seeing play.
very interesting story this may become. With what has happened recently with boston sports (hernandez, Remy's son), I think that this case and sully's behavior will be under the microscope over the coming weeks. You hope this is an isolated incident, and mistake of a 21 year old, and more information does not come out of possible other incidents that had not been reported to police. Normally id say that in no way shape of form would they release a promising young player over this, but in light of recent off season happenings in the Boston sports world, it would not shock me if they did.
