Khabibulin sentenced to 30 days in jail

Edmonton Oilers goalie Nikolai Khabibulin was sentenced to 30 days in jail when he decided to drive after pounding some Early Times whiskey. We don’t know for sure that he was drinking Early Times (we sure hope it was), but he definitely had too much of some kind of booze.

Khabibulin was found guilty on August 27th of driving under the influence with a blood-alcohol count of .08 or more, excessive speeding and extreme driving under the influence with a blood-alcohol content of .15 or more.

We don’t think extreme drinking and driving is as fun as it sounds.  We’re thinking Mountain Dew type of extreme DUI. Probably not that kind of fun and probably doesn’t involve a kayak or a skateboard.

So anyway, he was sentenced today to 30 days in jail. He’s appealing the sentence so for now he’s free to walk amongst the non-lawbreaking citizens of Canada.
