The Great Falls Grizzlies made great strides today in signing their new draft class in an attempt to bolster their depleted defense. Of the draftees signed today, one contract stood out: Billy Hill. Standard rookie scale contracts in the SMJHL are $2 Million annually with a $2 Million signing bonus. A majority of the players from this draft class have been signed at this rate. Not so for Billy Hill wo reportedly signed a contract with a whopping $2,042,069 annually, making him the highest paid player in the Grizzlies draft class.

Now to the keen eyed reader, you'll notice a very familiar string of numbers in there: 420 69. This seems like fun and games, but just hours after the deal was inked, Hill was seen wearing a gold chain and smoking what appears to be an illicit substance outside of a tattered house in the slums of Great Falls. This may signal that there are some cracks forming in the roster for the Grizzlies who are in dire need of someone in the defensive zone.

The biggest problem with this image being leaked is that this is proof positive that Billy Hill is under the influence, which could lead to random drug tests across the league and suspensions issued for any player found to be positive for narcotics, including Billy Hill. There may be more breaking in this incident in the near future, follow for more later this week.
