I can only catch quick glimpses of photos of the injuries to Voynov's wife. Lots of blood.

Among recorded comments attributed to Voynov's wife: "He kicked me here" and "Here he pushed me.

prosecutor: "there's evidence to suggest prior domestic violence"

The judge didn't allow Voynov's attorneys to enter a letter from Varlamova into evidence saying that
the alleged incident was an accident.
"accident"
Wouldn't be the first time a wife tried to change her story in one of these cases.
Voynov could be banned from the NHL, regardless of whether or not he's found "guilty" in a court of law.
The NHL has the right to make that kind of call, the NHL has an image to maintain.
I'm surprised this story isn't getting more press....
