If he lied about which charitable organizations he was involved with, among other things, I'm not so sure he's getting a pay day.

If you want to harp on it the rest of your life go for it.
Ty Anderson on 98.5 FM just said every player was against this
just did,enjoy the misery
This isn't over by a longshot for the front office. For the players, it is over.
My understanding, per Fenway, is that Sweeney (understandably) declined to appear on HNIC; yet he also failed to face the music on NESN, whose on air talent were instructed not to mention the situation.

One can only hope so. Missing so many red flags is just pure ineptness on all accounts. Not doing background checks on a kid that already had MASSIVE red flags waving them in the face is just so pathetic I don't know where to begin. Changes have to be made.

You have to gut hockey ops and rebuild it. I would like the Bruins to send everyone in the organization, including players, to diversity and inclusion and anti-bullying training. I also want to see the front office be more visible no matter how uncomfortable they may feel.
I also want them to invest in a proper PR/Media relations department.
It is time for management to practice what the players preach. If you can't get behind it, bye bye.

Imagine not realizing how big of an issue/story this is.
Hear, hear! Give Neely, Sweeney, Harkins & everyone else who had a direct role in this disaster the axe and do it right away. Not only will it put this to rest it will also help rebuild the franchise's credibility which has been seriously damaged.
Failing to take prompt & thorough action will only prolong the situation. Nobody wants that and the players sure as hell don't deserve it.

This person was vocal in their support of Miller getting a chance from minute one while also fighting every bit of evidence that came out against him. They also called for shutting the Miller thread down more than once to stifle the conversation.
Just so you have an idea of the motive behind that kind of post.
I would not want to be in his shoes having to explain this to his father.
Idiot doesn't realize the internet is forever, I'm sure someone has screen shots of his tweets.

I am on the side of people deserve a second chance, especially for what they do as minors but there are exceptions and this was absolutely one of them. There has been no true new leaf turned just court-ordered actions and this was not a "I acted bad one day when I was a kid" situation, this was long-term abuse.
Nobody is saying he should have to live in his parents basement until he's 50, but he can get a normal job and rehabilitate his image.
We all did stupid stuff as kids, and certainly as teenagers but even that has a spectrum.

That depends.
Upon whether the players can put this behind them and quickly move on.
I suspect they will, but don't be surprised if matters are a bit shaky for a while.
Sweeney and/or Neely consulted with Patrice and possibly others. They knew Bergeron did not want to sign Miller. They did so anyway.
That says something to a man, and a captain, like Patrice.
And it doesn't say anything good. Least of all about Sweeney and Neely.
They f***ed up just about every way here. The only smart thing they did was cut ties swiftly when faced with the inevitable backlash.
The coach and the players will move forward.
I'm not so sure about Sweeney and Neely. This is fireable stuff.
If I win powerball maybe

Enough with the flaming. Since I cant delete posts fast enough I will now delete posters. No more religion. No more off topic whatabouts. No more trolling. No more ‘woke’ , cancel culture or social declarations.
