Maybe hockey Canada shouldn't have a slush fund of millions of dollars that it keeps for the purpose of settling sexual assault allegations. Actually having internal consequences for anyone who is found guilty (or even accused of) sexaul assault, like not being selected to represent Hockey Canada as a player, coach, bus driver etc...

There are lots of things that Hockey Canada could do to try to help with this problem. It won't solve sexual assaults (noone expects hockey canada to do that) but it would do a very good job of reducing the problem for players associated the Hockey Canada.

I think most of those millions were given to victims of sick coaches. Mostly victims of Graham James. Do agree though, trying to settle things on behalf of players to try to not sully a gold medal is pretty bad. That's kinda like what Chicago did. Only Chicago is far worse because they knew the abuse was happening before the season was over, and were actively trying to kill any info from coming out so it wouldn't interfere with a cup run in progress. And that is just outright trying to make it all vanish with zero consequences (and even just denial of any wrongdoing years later), while Hockey Canada was trying to compensate the victim or victims.

Personally, I do think it's good that this proactive offerings of money to put the issue to rest ends. Seems that precedent was created by Graham James and other gross things in the past. Not it it supposed to be done with, which is good. If any of these kids thought that they could get away with stuff because Hockey Canada would protect them, hope that is done with. Although, it sounds like Hockey Canada was could not force any victim to not reject a settlement and attempt charges. Regardless, option gone, for the better.

Honestly, if you're gonna play for Team Canada as a kid, with everything paid for, and being given a massive opportunity to boost your stock for the NHL and potentially make millions, I do think there should be some serious oversight of the players off the ice. It's inevitable that some a-hole jocks or a group of them will be coming through. Spare us all the embarrassment of kids doing total garbage on Canada's dime. We're giving these guys more than enough that they can be forced to behave. Go be a scumbag when you're back home.

Or don't be a scum bag.
