| TORONTO - Milos Raonic has been named Tennis Canadas male player of the year after making history this season. E.J. Gaines Browns Jersey . The hard-serving 22-year-old from Thornhill, Ont., became the first Canadian to be ranked in the Top 10 on the ATP World Tour thanks to his runner-up performance at Rogers Cup in Montreal. Raonic was the first Canadian to make the final since 1958. He ended the season at No. 11, and also went 5-1 in Davis Cup action to lead Canada to its first-ever World Group semifinal appearance. "In his young career, Milos has already hit so many pinnacles in Canadian tennis, and his commitment to continue developing as a player shows his potential is nowhere near being fully realized yet," said Michael S. Downey, president and CEO of Tennis Canada. "Milos, along with Vasek (Pospisil) and Daniel (Nestor), are helping to grow Canadas reputation as a tennis nation." Pospisil, from Vancouver, won most improved player, while Torontos Nestor won the male doubles player of the year award.

Left back Layvin Kurzawa put Monaco ahead in the 36th minute with a low shot after being set up by midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia, sweeping the ball in after running onto Kondogbias cross from the left.L.A. Kings defenceman Slava Voynov has been suspended indefinitely with pay following his arrest on suspicion of domestic violence. The City of Redondo Beach Police Department issued a press release indicating that a female could be heard screaming and crying from Voynovs home, and that later that night, Voynov accompanied the alleged victim to the hospital where he was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. The Charges Voynov was arrested pursuant to Section 273.5 of the California Penal Code. A person is charged under this section if he or she willfully inflicts corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition upon a victim. Willfully means a person acted on purpose. Traumatic refers to any injury caused by the application of physical force. Traumatic injuries can be either serious or minor, and include broken bones, concussions, sprains, bruises and injuries from suffocation or strangulation. A domestic violence crime under Section 273.5 is either a misdemeanor or a felony. A felony is the far more serious charge. The type of charge will depend on a number of factors, including the severity of the injuries sustained and whether the defendant has a history of violence. With a felony, Voynov would be facing up to four years in state jail with an additional five years if great bodily injury was inflicted. On the other hand, a misdemeanor is punishable by up to one year in county jail. NHL Suspends Voynov To Protect Its Reputation As per Article 18-A.5 of the NHL Collective Bargaining Agreement, which deals with off-ice discipline, Voynov was suspended indefinitely with pay. This section provides that the league may suspend the Player pending the Leagues formal review and disposition of the matter where the failure to suspend the Player during this period would create a substantial risk of material harm to the legitimate interests and/or reputation of the League. There is a misconception that since this language appears in the CBA, the NHLPA agreed to a suspension for suspected domestic violence and as a result it cant challenge the NHLs decision. Thats not the case. The Union did indeed collectively bargain Article 18; however it did not expressly agree to a suspension for suspected domestic violence. The language in this section is certainly broad enough to capture the Voynov suspension. To conclude, however, that the NHLPA explicitly agreed to a player suspension in these specific circumstances is not accurate. It agreed to let the league protect its reputation. When and how it does that is open to interpretation. NHLPA & A Grievance The NHLPA could grieve this case with a view to getting Voynov reinstated. The NHLPA would argue that a suspension based merely on allegations fails to respect due process and the cherished principle of the presumption of innocence. While a presumption of innocence in certain circumstances makes us uncomfortable, the NHLPA would argue, it is the cornerstone of the judicial system and must be respected at all levels. Voynov is innocent until proven guilty, and the NHLPA would say that the NHLs actions are capricious, while also prematurely suggesting guilt. The NHLPA would also argue that the NHL would not be materially harmed if it first waited for law enforcement to decide the matter. Further, the NHLPA cares about precedent. By allowing Voynovs suspension to go unchallenged, it is mindful it may become more difficult to mount a meaningful objection in future for a similar case. As well, the NHLPA may be concerned that other players may be falsely accused of wrongdoing by a former spouse or companion looking to extract revenge for a bad breakup, etc. Baker Mayfield Jersey. Since a mere allegation of domestic violence may sustain a suspension, there is an incentive for a scorned lover to manufacture a story with a view to inflicting harm and embarrassment on a player. Another Case: Semyon Varlamov Despite being formally charged in November of last year with third degree assault after allegedly attacking his girlfriend Evgeniya Vavrinyuk, Colorado Avalanche goaltender Semyon Varlamov was still permitted to play. The NHLPA would argue that this constitutes inconsistent treatment of its members and the only reason Voynov is being suspended is because the incident occurred post-Rice. Ray Rice Changed Everything The NHL could point to Ray Rice to support its position. Times have changed since the appalling video evidence of Rices left cross surfaced. That video changed the way people react to domestic violence. Gone are the days when sports fans put up with it. The public sentiment is now one of complete intolerance and absolute scorn. As a result, the league could argue that allowing Voynov to play could tarnish or irreparably harm its reputation. That could translate into a loss of sponsors, season ticket holders and fans. This argument falls squarely within the four corners of Article 18-A.5, which is designed to protect the reputation of the league. Is it a subjective interpretation? Depends who you ask. Is it unreasonable? No. The league would also be clear that each case is considered on its own facts and that suspensions will not be automatic in cases of domestic violence allegations. Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly acknowledged the changing times together with a belief that the circumstances were different than Varlamov. I think the landscape has changed for all of us over the past six months, Daly said in an email to thn.com. But thats not the only reason for the difference in treatment. Circumstances were different in Varlamov. I cant get more specific than that. Ultimately, the NHL would argue that its taking the prudent approach, and while not ideal, the dramatically different landscape surrounding domestic violence forced its hand. While not without legal risk, the NHLs position is not unreasonable and may well withstand legal scrutiny. Both sides, though, have good arguments. That generally happens when broad legal language is open to interpretation. And Article 18 is no exception. Voynov Could Sue As for Voynov, there is the possibility he could sue the NHL if ever acquitted. While remote, he could allege that his acquittal proves he did nothing wrong and his immediate suspension damaged his reputation and earning potential. Domestic Violence: A Deportable Crime In the U.S., the crime of domestic violence can lead to serious immigration consequences for defendants who are not U.S. citizens. Under a federal law called the Immigration and Nationality Act, a non-citizen can be ordered deported if he is convicted of domestic violence. So apart from prison time, Voynov could also be deported. Victims Refusal To Testify Domestic violence in the state of California is not only considered a crime against the person, but also against the state. This means that a prosecutor has the authority to pursue criminal charges of domestic violence even if the alleged victim doesnt want to cooperate. A prosecutor has subpoena power, which means he or she can force the accuser to testify. Its generally preferable to have the victims cooperation, but its not necessary. Whats Next for the NHL?
