Washington head coach Adam Oates says he feels bad for his top center Nicklas Backstrom who was banished from the Olympics for taking a banned substance. While the allergy medication was banned by the IOC, it's not by the NHL. "We feel so sorry for him, it's terrible," Oates said. "The circumstances, we don't know all the facts, but he took cold medicine that's allowed. 'I've got a cold or I've got an allergy.' They gave him the medicine, Zyrtec-D, that's OK at the time and then all of a sudden it's not OK. It kind of doesn't make sense to me." We think that Backstrom will not receive a silver medal as he was disqualified from the Games.
