Smashian Kassian Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 26 minutes ago, Toews said: How many of us would look like self-entitled jerks if all our chats were released to the public. Not excusing Leipsic's misogynistic behaviour but this needs to be put into context. These messages were clearly intended for a certain audience and not for the masses. Reminds me of that season of South Park where everyone's internet history is being released by Denmark. People are judgmental and we rarely look in the mirror for reasons other than our vanity. What if these were a group of women doing the chatting. I bet it would be perceived differently. From personal experience women cannot be underestimated when it comes to viciousness, that and they have longer memories to boot, a truly deadly combination. Edit: No defense for the racist comment, deserves to be raked over the coals. Anyone who is racist toward Canada's long suffering Native population needs to revoke their citizenship and go die on an island somewhere. It's a sticky situation. His character is exposed, there's no defending it really. But privatw messages are private messages, what are you going to do about things people say in private? Do we really want to open that can of worms? If you even can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post VforVasili Posted May 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2020 Some of you folks are acting like this is just "boys being boys". If some dude shared a picture of someone wife and said how fat she was I would tell him to go fornicate with himself. Private or not, wrong is wrong. No one should get a free pass for that in anyone's company. If they do get a free pass in your company, you are a part of the problem. 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Red Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 This kind of talk is so foreign to me. I truly hope this isn't common. Zero decency, makes me a bit angry actually. I did feel there was something off about the guy, complete loser. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 48MPHSlapShot Posted May 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2020 The thing is, there's no context that makes this look any better. This wasn't said in the heat of the moment or anything. This wasn't him trying to be as offensive as possible as a joke or something. This $&!# wasn't being said ironically.This is just how the guy is. Somehow he's as $&!#ty a human being as he is a hockey player. 1 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a tweener anyways so he was as good as gone regardless imo. But the goal of private information is to remain private. If he got hacked, that means the social media platform servers have some security concerns that need to be addressed. And if he wants to present the case that he could've made millions and this invasion of privacy cost him that money then he'll be able to find lawyers to represent him. Again, I don't agree with it because I believe he was on his way out of the league regardless. BUT companies are liable for their cybersecurity measures. I'm sure they're up to industry/regulation standards but you wonder with 100s of millions if not billions using Twitter/IG, perhaps they're responsible for going the extra mile in terms of cybersecurity. I'm just playing devil's advocate But I am curious... Perhaps any lawyers/legal assistants can weigh in on this? You know that “hacked” in 2020 is generally shorthand for “someone in the chat left their phone unlocked and then the chat got leaked”, right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Anyone saying talk "happens"? As soon as it's leaked/exposed/whatever all excuses go out the window and there's no covering for it. Own it. If you're going to be an ahole behind the scenes and talk the talk...walk the walk or you're a punk ass coward. Trying too hard to impress his bro's. Herd of sheep. But, but, but...I'm sorry. Piss off. People who talk like this are toxic. Period. Because talk and ideas with a theme of hate and degradation that are spread around...even if just for a laugh....create a culture of all that is wrong in the world. Groups of guys who share this mentality are pathetic. Boys not men. I love that these idiots lining up "fat chicks" don't know the difference between they're and their. Using all their brain power to insult others when, really, they're complete dumbasses. 25 years old? Time to grow up maybe? Wannabe hack player...glad we got rid of his useless ass. This organization has too much class for that sorry piece of trash. You can't put Leispic on a pig...you'll make the pig look bad. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted May 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2020 If Leipsic wasn’t at the end of his deal already, I’d wager that his contract would be getting terminated. Misogyny, racism, badmouthing of current and former teammates, and, to top it off, substance abuse (just count the number of times the words “blow,” “coke,” “molly,” “Hollywood,” “lines,” and other obvious drug jargon appears in his DMs). If it were just the drugs, but none of the other stuff, maybe he just enters the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program, and is welcomed back after completing rehab and counseling. But all that stuff heaped together? I think the Caps just cut their losses and let their RFA rights expire, and probably no NHL team touches Leipsic when he hits UFA. Maybe I’m wrong. But I just don’t see a marginal player like Leipsic coming back from this. Not worth the headache. Plenty of guys out there who can provide everything “Lip” brings on the ice, while not embarrassing their team (and themselves) off the ice. Different story if he was a star player. But Leipsic probably just DM’ed his way out of the NHL. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't understand that, you probably should try harder to. I hope you're young and that explains why you don't get why this is not ok. Most real people don't talk like this.

BlueDragon23 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Can’t say I’m surprised to be honest. They’re a lot of these types of jerks in the real world. It’s completely inappropriate to make comments about a former teammate’s wife, especially if it’s regarding weight since it’s a sensitive topic for a lot of people. And the racist comments, there is no defending that no matter what anyone says. I’m glad we waived this loser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
