Varlamov can't make bail until he sees a judge due to assault charge
Semyon Varlamov will be stuck in a jail cell until he can see a judge, according to Denver Post reporter Ryan Parker, because the Avalanche goaltender is charged with assault. Varlamov is in his own jail cell because "he's famous."
Myself and @MarcKMGH are at the jail requesting an interview with #Varlamov now. Officials say he is in a cell alone because he's famous

Another important tidbit of information: It is up to NHL commissioner Gary Bettman whether Varlamov can keep playing.
The CBA gives NHL commissioner Gary Bettman the power to suspend a player under criminal investigation. #Varlamov.
