Should Tyutin Blast American Laws?

Let's get back into the Semyon Varlamov incident, where he allegedly threw his girlfriend against a wall and stomped her in a drunken rampage. I don't like saying that, but I don't have better words for it at this moment.


There's a report out of the Calgary Sun that fellow Russian and NHL player Fedor Tyutin is sticking by the goaltender's side and is blasting American laws that he says favors women. He told R-sport, a Russian outlet, "It's just American laws are on the women's side, that's why they can go to the police for any little thing, complain, and bring a lot of problems to men."

Varlamov was arrested on second-degree kidnapping and third-degree assault charges stemming from the alleged incident. The victim was hospitalized for her injuries. The lawyer for the victim believes that Varlamov was excessively drunk the night of the incident. Varlamov posted bond and was released. He played in the Friday night 3-2 overtime win over the Dallas Stars in Dallas, in a game which I believe he shouldn't have played.

Look, I've been getting a lot of feedback from people saying that he should just play, regardless of the law and what he had recently been through. But I'm not with these people and I'm not sure anybody who's been a victim like this sometime in their lives should better. And I don't agree with Fedor Tyutin's belief that our laws favor women. Our laws do not favor women. Our laws favor both sides and are there to protect the people from harm or injustice. They help to put away the bad people who've done harm to the particular people. It's the same for men as it is for women. The problem is Fedor Tyutin has not understood how the American justice system works. In it, everybody is innocent until proven guilty. But, in my case, the physical evidence on the woman might all that be needed. It doesn't matter whether it's male or female. If there's any evidence of brutality, there's gonna be charges filed. You cannot hit anybody, whether male or female. Everybody learns this when they are young and somehow we have it when we are older because we can't figure out how to walk away from situations when they get intense. Varlamov didn't walk away from a bad situation. He, instead, just made it worse and that's why I believe he shouldn't have played. He should face justice before deciding to step back onto the ice. Any team should not be having this in their locker room. It should be like players who are called for a hearing on hits. They are suspended until further notice. That's what Varlamov should've gotten and I'm surprised he played in the game. I'm sorry, but it's the truth for any sport. You can't engage in acts that will possibly have consequences to it. Hitting a women is one of them and Varlamov didn't learn that. So now he'll face the law and we'll see what will happen to him.

Fedor Tyutin, you need to stay out of how American law works. Our laws do not favor women. Our laws protect everybody, even the men, from harm. That's how we're able to stay a safe country a high percentage of the time. And here's the biggest thing that you should learn and I said it before: Everybody is innocent until proven guilty. There will be people, like me, who don't like what he did and say that he shouldn't be playing, but that's how law works. So stay out of it and just keep playing hockey.
