Gurn Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 The NHL thinks they are possibly going to take action against players: that have not been named or charged even though the league has not talked to the alleged victim or seemingly to the non named players. Should make it difficult to punish players when you don't know who they are. Star chamber. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was an non involved member of that team, I'd be asking a lawyer to do what is necessary to ensure that my name is publicized as being NOT involved. All the players are now smeared on the alleged actions of 10 of them. I would not stand for it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking all the players (and more people around that team) know exactly who the 8 guys involved in the rape are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Sadly, due to a recent Supreme court of Canada ruling- they players involved could use 'extreme drunkenness" as their defence, had this gotten to court. "Yes your honour she was drunk, an absolute wreck, but so were we- so no fault -right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can assure you this was common practice in Jr through the 80's and 90's and most likely continue now. I've always said most of the most terrible people I knew were hockey players and most of them were revered in their communities. The people in the hockey world are the main reason I decided to quit while I was in the WHL Edited May 27, 2022 by stawns 2 2 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post King Heffy Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 Disgusting. Hopefully the league finds out who was involved and all of themk are banned for life since it looks like they won't be going to prison where they belong. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westhead is making a good case for the HHOF for his work in exposing the darker side of hockey. The media gets a lot of hate but people with integrity and compassion like Westhead can make a huge positive impact. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Almost the entire team was comprised of current NHLers including some very high profile ones (Makar, Kyrou, Thomas, Hart) Wonder if any of these guys were involved. Also former Canuck Jonah Gadjovich was a member of that team. If he was involved that would be three players under Benning accused of sexual assault… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
