Maybe I am missing something but what changes have to be made to try and prevent this? This isn't me sticking up for Hockey Canada, they got issues. But these guys are dirt bags. How does hockey stop people from being a dirt bag?




When you're factoring in 2003, 2018, and other rumblings of Hockey Canada paying off other victims, it's easy to sense that "some" (not all obviously) see this coerced group activity as just somewhat of a harmless ritualistic prank that gets passed on for generations on an "inside" rite of passage bonding level.

The law & media obviously have to make an example of the 2018 guys in that hotel room in order for the hockey community to realize that this is NOT ok....for the sake of future victims obviously AND future players risking their livelihoods over a ridiculous inside practice.

Edit: TSN is now saying there were 8 guys in the room...wonder who the other 3 were as they would be subpoenaed in the courts having to testify in 2025/2026 whenever the actual trial takes place.

I see the payoffs as a separate thing. I don't agree with them. This should have said something when it happened instead of hide it. I 100% agree with that. But what is some guy sitting in an office at Hockey Canada responsible for if some dirt bag teen boy does this at some even in pick a City?

These kids did a criminal act. There are Hockey Canada rules on my kids minor hockey association page. Doing criminal activities isn't allowed. So I don't get how they stop people from being bad people. There was a kid that ran a kid in one of my oldest games, then was taunting the crowd as he got kicked out. It's not the hockey associations fault this kid did he, he's just a jerk. The cover up part, needs to stop but systematic changes to stop the offenses from taking place, I don't see how or what can be done. Hopefully these kids are raised right to know it's not OK.


Would guys losing NHL careers & lucrative earnings for something they were "indoctrinated" into thinking was a harmless ritualistic group prank while having this blasted all over mainstream media get the message across to future players?


To say it's indoctrinated in these kids, you are saying Hockey Canada on purpose is teaching these kids that raping a girl is what you do when you are a high level player. I am not in the room or in the meetings, so I don't have a way to 100% say you are wrong but you are telling me Hockey Canada grooms these kids to be sex offenders?

You are messing with me right? You can't seriously believe that.


Obviously, I'm not saying Hockey Canada...the organization...is indoctrinating these kids into carrying out these practices.

"Undocumented traditions on the down low" are always passed onto future generations of young people in any part of the world that technically fall under the category of "breaking rules."

What preserves these practices over time is obviously some form of peer pressure amongst young people...selling their peers on "fear of missing out" or "becoming one of the cool kids" is obviously prevalent.

^With that being said, the junior hockey subculture amongst certain young players (once again "not all") probably view this as a harmless prank that "technically goes against the law" much like drinking underage, smoking a blunt, driving over the speed limit, etc....and that's where the problem lies
