Just horrible stuff. I don't know if they can prove that this stuff happened, but I don't have a problem believing it given the "boys will be boys!" culture in hockey and sports in general in years past. Regardless of what happens with this lawsuit you hope that this helps stop this kind of stuff from happening in the future since you know its going on in some fashion to this day.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!

Yeah, I mean it's one thing to put zip ties or a padlock on someone's luggage, or shave a sleeping team mate's eyebrows. This is fucking rape, sexual assault, bestiality. If even half of this shit is true...

I'm sure a certain amount has been exaggerated, but I don't doubt that a fair amount of that stuff happened.

The sad thing is it's just accepted, by everyone involved.

Keep in mind, this is just the mindset about the sport in some of those areas - ever read this?

"By the time I was 10, it got worse. He would put cigarettes out on me. Choke me. Throw full soda cans at my head. Every time I stepped on the ice, I knew that my play would determine just how bad I got it when we got home. I’d score a hat trick, and afterward we’d get in the car and he would tell me that I played “like a faggot” (that was his favorite term, which says a lot)."

Crazy stuff.

Got a grudge against somebody or some institution? Now's the perfect time and social climate to do it.

According to McKenzie and Friedman it was Tampa. This is not surprising at all given that Florida has seen a huge spike the last week or so.
Kill the season instead of killing players and staff.

If one person dies, your brand is fucked. It is not worth it.
Sports is canceled forever...there will never be a way to make sure nobody has this or the next virus.

Just because there is a massive wildfire somewhere across the country doesn't mean the fire department shouldn't save a burning house.

Anyway Cherry and Roenick sucked at their jobs and deserved to be replaced, but sure, congrats on not being accused of raping minors, guys.

None of this would've happened if modern day hockey players had adopted the health habits of the old-timers: Start smoking at the age of 6, eat bacon fat three times a day, come to camp 40 pounds overweight, never lift a weight or pedal a stationary bike. Tampa's entire roster would've died 10-15 years ago. Problem solved!

Pouring dipspit on people once is forgivable...with regularity...you are mentally ill, and need to be drugged, and locked in a rubber room.
