There has recently been a investigation within the hockey Canada organization and a female victim who was allegedly sexually assaulted by not one team Canada player, but eight of them. After a hook up at a bar that the two agreed upon, the team Canada player invited the female back to his hotel, where he then allegedly invited a whopping 8 players to come perform sexual activity on the female WITHOUT her consent.
This dates back to the 2018 world junior championship, and team Canada's roster has many notable names in there who have now developed into NHL players: 8 on this list were involved in the alleged sexual assault case, but are not being identified.
The individual/individuals involved have been kept a secret, hockey Canada fails to make a statement on the players who were involved in the alleged sexual assault. Many frustrated, as they should be- more info was revealed by the Globe News which stated that Hockey Canada used parents funding to pay off the sexual assault victim a large amount of $3.3 million dollars at once. Multiple sponsors such as Canadian Tire, Tim Hortons, St.Hubert's Scotia Bank, Gatorade and more have officially cut their partnership with Hockey Canada, and other should consider doing the same as they are hiding a serious issue at the moment.
Jordan Kyrou of the St.Louis Blues has made his statement:
As a member of the 2018 World Junior team, I am aware of allegations made against certain members of that team. I want to clearly state I did not attend the Hockey Canada Gala and was not in London, Ontario at the time of the alleged incident.
I am prepared to cooperate with any additional investigations in the future if necessary. Given the ongoing investigations, I will not provide any further public comments.
