It does not matter if the players knew about a slush fund or not. The fact that it is was created says more about the mentality of the old Hockey Canada regime. If you are creating a fund to pay off lawsuits you are expecting poor behaviour from your athletes.

"Boys will be boys"
"She put herself in that position"
"She was asking for it"
"We cannot let a small indiscretion ruin these boys' careers"

Hockey Canada will never admit to saying this stuff, but there actions show they support that line of thinking. Same goes for a lot of the comment sections (I can only read them for a few finger scrolls before I feel nauseated). The kids might be the problem, but the reason they are this way is from the adults influencing them. It's a horrible cycle that needs to end. Unfortunately it will not be in my lifetime and at 48 I am barely half way done. Some people present as good humans, but when the light shines on them you find out how horrible they can be.


I think what you are saying is deflecting blame away from who did these terrible things. Slush fund or not, these 5 made the choice to sexually assault someone. They are sex offenders.

1000's of kids play hockey every year and even with evil Hockey Canada apparently setting some mentality, they manage not to rape a girl. Is that just luck? I don't think those 5 doubled checked to make sure there was a slush fund in place to pay this girl off before they made the choice to do what they did and I don't think if there wasn't one, they would have not done it.

These 5 are dirt bags, they are criminals, it's no one else's fault they did it but theirs. I think the way this discussion has gone, it's a representation of how society is now. It's always someone else's fault. They raped a girl but it's Hockey Canada's fault for apparently setting the tone or whatever apparently is there fault, that assaulting women is cool.

Crazy idea. How about instead of blaming someone else, you just don't be a dirt bag and don't break the law. You know it's wrong, so just don't do what's wrong. I don't think anyone was pointing a gun to their head. Radical idea. I know. confused2
