VANCOUVER — When Linden Vey called the past two seasons the worst of his career, he was speaking only about his experiences on the ice.
But when you learn about his story, the one that has engulfed his family since 2013, it becomes impossible to separate what's unfolded off it.
As Vey has struggled to establish his NHL career, he has been balancing far bigger issues and he's hoping his family will soon get closure.
On May 24, his father Curtis Vey is to go on trial with co-accused Angela Nicholson. The pair have been charged with conspiracy to murder their spouses.
