Injured Edmonton Oilers goalie Nikolai Khabibulin has been arrested in Arizona and charged with drunk driving.
Police in Scottsdale say they stopped a black Ferrari for speeding Feb. 8. The officer who made the stop noticed a smell of alcohol on the driver's breath and made the arrest after a sobriety test.
Police say Khabibulin, who led the Tampa Bay Lightning to the 2004 Stanley Cup title, was booked on charges of driving under the influence and excessive speed and then released.
Khabibulin joined the Oilers in the off-season after stints with Tampa Bay, the Chicago Blackhawks, Phoenix Coyotes and Winnipeg Jets.
But he has out of the lineup for most of the year with back problems.
