Tootoo is cleared to return to practice with the Predators while he continues his outpatient care.

Kukla’s Korner is always a free service for readers, but it costs some money to maintain. If you’re ever in a position to donate a few dollars to help out, we’d be very appreciative.
Good for him. The effect of drugs and alcohol on the native communities is completely real and it has to be remarkably hard for him to voluntarily take part in this. Especially for someone who prides on being arole model for members of his community on what the limits are to where you can go in life, the guy has some grit and I respect the hell out of him
