OT: Around the NHL 2021-22: So it begins...

But he felt more comfortable reporting it within his organization, who should have investigated and reported it to the proper authorities. Asking the victim to go straight to authorities is often too much. We have organizational processes to resolve these issues but Chicago either did not or did not follow them.

I agree 100%.

They also never informed future employers of his history. That’s just as heinous.

They couldn’t. This type of stuff consistently ends in lawsuits which is why you don’t see letters of recommendation or references hardly every anymore.

They couldn’t because there was no history to report.

I’m not arguing that.

Hopefully more comes out of these lawsuits. I would like to know a lot more about what key players knew and what coaches and execs knew.

Excited for the resolution to Quenneville's involvement. Can't wait for the "Yeah, I mean, he was instrumental in covering it up and keeping it from going public in favor of keeping team morale high (even though everyone already knew), and he outright lied to everyone's face this summer when asked about it once things went public, but y'know. He's close to 1000 wins!"

Akim Aliu's stuff on dealing with Cheveldayoff is... Uh, not good.

Maybe, and hear me out, hockey's just a f***ing miserable, rotten sport full of bigots and sex pests.

 

[Pittsburgh1776]

This is the same type of garbage. People doing nothing, not investigating rumors, not informing players of the dangers posed. Hiding behind legalese. This shit runs deep in hockey and this is the tip of the iceberg.

Former players say Chicago area hockey coach sexually abused them

Tortorella?

I mean, he seems to be okay outside of the rink, but the guy is a hardcore dinosaur.
