Pavelec Charged with DUI in Czech Republic

While back in his native Czech Republic before he signed a five-year,$19.5 million contract, Winnipeg Jets goaltender Ondrej Pavelec allegedly was in a car acciddent when he rear-ended another driver and has since been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol.  The report is unconfirmed and apparently happened months ago, making some in the media wonder how it was kept under wraps for so long.  Jets General Manager Kevin Cheveldayoff issued a statement stating no comment will be made on the matter until all the details are in.
