Adam Ruzicka was looking to reignite his career in Arizona, but unfortunately, his life has been turned upside down after he posted a social media video of him doing some very unsavoury things.

Not only did this result in contract termination by the Arizona Coyotes, but now his home country of Slovakia has officially banned him from competition.

Given the public figures that athletes become, posting the type of video that he did just isn't something that should ever happen, whether it was done by accident or not. Ultimately though, this was the right move for Hockey Slovakia, and while Ruzicka may be able to work to repair his image in the coming years, for now, no team wants any part of him, and that's completely understandable.
