We are still awaiting La Presse's official version of a story that links Andrei and Sergei Kostitsyn to a criminal who was arrested on several charges in Montreal, last week.

Roman Hamrlik has also been implicated in the report as having looser ties to this alleged mobster- Pasquale Mangiola.

Nothing has surfaced detailing their affiliation. The police have several recordings, including conversations between the Kostitsyns and Mangiola on different occasions.

Andrei Kostitsyn admitted to knowing Mangiola but said he didn't know anything about him, when questioned after the game.

All of this is according to RDS.ca...

No one on the Canadiens has been arrested, so there's reason to believe this story isn't as bad as originally portrayed on RDS earlier this evening, throughout the game. We'll have to wait and see what comes out in La Presse.

I will be at practice in Brossard tomorrow...Will write later in the day.
