The NHL has reached out out to Robin Lehner to set up an interview after the goaltender made several accusations on social media, including that teams give players drugs without a doctor’s consent, a league spokesman confirmed to The Associated Press. In a series of tweets Saturday, Lehner said he knows “many“ teams that give sedatives and anxiety pills to players without a doctor’s prescription. The league did not initially have plans to launch an independent investigation until the conversation with Lehner happens. Lehner tweeted at the league and Players’ Association that they know how to reach him. ___Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner (90) makes as save against Los Angeles Kings center Gabriel Vilardi (13) during the first period of an NHL hockey preseason game Thursday, Sept. 30, 2021, in Salt Lake City.
