Ex-Blackhawks’ Goaler Khabibulin Guilty Of DUI

Our Chicago DUI Attorneys wish ex-Chicago Blackhawks’ goaler Nikolai Khabibulin all the best as he prepares to be sentenced in Arizona for DUI.

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin has been found guilty of speeding and driving under the influence of alcohol.

Khabibulin, 37, showed no emotion as a judge in Scottsdale, Ariz., delivered the decision following a brief trial Friday afternoon. Sentencing will take place at a date yet to be confirmed.

Khabibulin was pulled over on Feb. 8 for speeding in his black Ferrari near his Scottsdale home. He was cited for driving under the influence when the test revealed his blood alcohol content was more than twice the legal limit.

Khabibulin could face a minimum jail sentence of 30 days as well as fines and be required to use a breath-test machine before starting his vehicle. The maximum penalty for the offense is a six-month jail term.
