Patrick O'Sullivan just tweeted that he wrote about the abuse 5yrs ago I his book. Talks about how he used homophobic slurs and what not, looks forward to meeting with the Hawks for the investigation.
Does not look good for Crawford.
Beat me to it.Who hasn't wanted to kick Avery? Should of kicked him in the head, it might have knocked some sense into him.
Few people on this board cared when it was brought up when he was hired. They’re feigning like they care because people decided this is a systemic problem starting about a month ago. It’s very surreal for me.I'm shocked they are investigating this. They knew fully well the type of **** he's done when he was hired. Nothing has come out to push him past being the ******* we already knew he's been.

Apparently this Avery allegation isn’t new, someone on the main board said it was in Avery’s memoir?
Hawks are definitely setting themselves up for the “Why’d you even hire him?” media question.
This is a witch hunt for all Coaches /Managers who were hard on players... Some of these guys made a lot of money because Coaches like Crawford pushed them to be better.. Suck it up princess's -
NEWSFLASH : Hockey is not for everyone- you used to have to be tough to make it up through the ranks - its a different culture and different world then most of society could never hack it in and many talented players couldn't either - Its just the way it was and we liked it that way .
The many people piling on now are the ones who never made it .. or ex players who are now irrelevant in society and looking for attention .
Like Theo Fleury right?
These coaches have tremendous power over young people and need to use that power appropriately. Nobody says coaches can't be tough but some of these coaches are only tough guys because of their position.
There's no need for any of this kind of BS to coach hockey.
-Dont compare these acts to yelling at a player .
