The NHL announced Today thst Aaron Ekblad is suspended for 20 games due to a violation for the NHL and NHLPA's Performance Enhancing Substances Program.

The Panthers have 18 regular season games and he will also miss the first 2 games of the playoffs.

Ekblad issued a statement through the NHLPA

"As the NHL announced, I have been suspended for violating the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program. The news that I had failed a random drug test was a shock. Ultimately, I made a mistake by taking something to help me recover from recent injuries without first checking with proper medical and team personnel.”
