Full recap of the events:
A 911 call was made requesting help for a woman found in a Seattle hotel room, after Colorado Avalanche staff went to check on what was happening in Nichushkin's room.
The call indicated that she had likely overdosed on alcohol or that "something had been mixed into her drink.
When the dispatcher asks if the 28-year-old woman is conscious and awake, the caller responds: "For now, she's hanging on." He then adds: "She's awake for now, but she's weakening."
She also later said that a mean man had stolen her passport. The details remain unclear.
In the 40-minute video, we learn in particular that the Colorado Avalanche reportedly told a justice officer that Nichushkin had been sidelined for health and safety reasons.
We also see a conversation between the police officers and Dr. Bradley Changstrom, from the Avalanche.
