Most wealth people understand that getting blood from a stone is impossible so is getting money from some poor 21 year old unless her family comes from money and even than it's not her money. This is a play by her lawyer telling her side that this is going to court and when it does she won't be able to stay anonymous. Which is interesting in itself. Why does she what to remain anonymous does she come from wealth does she have her own reputation to protect. A poor person usually doesn't care especially if it did happen. But some one who has a reputation that's is trying to black mail a hockey player would want to stay anonymous. If I were JV lawyer I would want to get her out in the open. She had one shot to fire it might have wounded JV but it didn't kill him Now it is JVs turn to fire a shot in this game I think JV has more than one to fire. His response and denial was one. Second any messages between them that may provided implied intent or even prior consent. Third her wanting to stay anonymous. She was 18 at the time that is not a minor in this province if it goes to court her name will be revealed. In the UK they have the right to remain anonymous and so to me I understand and don’t cast judgement based on that. and it is a common tactic seen, the purpose isn’t to get the money from an accuser but to make the threat of a failed he said/she said be ruinious so that the accuser comes to the table to discuss settlements rather than have their day in court. something like this should be conducted between lawyers and the courts, not the court of public opinion - what ‘shots’ either of them fire is irrelevant in the grand scheme. This isn’t some reality tv show with drama from one side to the other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't looked into it, but I'd be curious to see how many of those goals were of the "meaningless" variety ... empty netters, 5th goal in a 5-1 win, etc. If you watched all the games you would’ve known that Jake scored 6 GWGs. Jake lead the team in game winning goals that season. So not the meaningless empty netters you claimed they were when watching all those games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickenspear Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 18 hours ago, Saved_by_Jesus said: What would Virtanen counter-sue her for? You can't sue someone for defamation based on things they say in court/lawsuit. Maybe because her intention was to put it out there in an interview without going to the proper authorities first? Did she ever intend to go to the police, would be the question. They didn't get involved until this broke on social media. But we'll just have to wait and see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) My dad once asked him if there were ever days where he hated going to work, and of course, he gave the generic "oh no, I love playing for Vancouver... it's an honour and privilege to be able to play for my hometown team"... Then my dad said something along the lines of "no, come on.... everyone has days where they hate having to go to work. There are days where we have crazy people coming into my workplace and we have to deal with them. Are there certain games you hate having to play?" And Jake replied, "oh, well when we play against big physical teams like the Bruins, those are games that I don't like getting up for." So, there goes that urban legend that so many people wanted to believe, in that he's the kind of player that'll show up in the playoffs... He's a dud. And I know of another "incident" during the training camp where he was basically gifted a roster spot (heard through a personal source). It's too bad, really. What a waste of a career and potential. Guy's in a serious world of trouble. Edited June 11, 2021 by Herberts Vasiljevs 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The absolute worst part is, out of the small group of low life's defending him now, the majority of those people would have been hating on Jake based off his play this last year. They changed their tune litterally because of the situation. Meaning to their core they are fundamentally vile people who will defend someone being accused of sexual assult based strictly off the fact he's being accused of sexual assult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also hate the 'moral police' crew who come in and openly accuse anyone who DOESN'T outright call Jake a rapist as being a rapist, or some kind of sympathizer to them. Found these people that you and I described on Twitter - and it's terrible. Edited June 11, 2021 by Dazzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
