PHILADELPHIA — As NHL training camps get underway this week, the greater hockey community is still searching for answers in the midst of multiple ongoing investigations into Hockey Canada’s handling of a sexual assault allegation involving members of their 2018 World Juniors team.
TSN reported in May that Hockey Canada settled a lawsuit out of court with a woman who claimed to be sexually assaulted by eight Canadian Hockey League players, including members of the 2018 Canadian World Juniors team, in a hotel room after a Hockey Canada Foundation gala in London, Ontario, in June of that year.
The woman filed those allegations to the Ontario Superior Court in London on April 20. The eight players were referred to in the statement of claim as John Does 1-8 and have not been identified. Additionally, the woman has not been identified.
