Canada's 2003 world hockey junior team also accused of group sexual assault

[BLNY]

I don't know if they pull coverage, but they'd be within their right to say they ain't paying for the rights.

 

[TheKingPin]

I’m just starting to read on this and it’s disturbing. What players are up to be involved still? I’ve heard 2 former flyers - Upshall and Lupul? I know back in the Richards time with the team there were a lot of rumors about the young players.

One would think those rights have already been paid for.

 

[SLAYER]

Sad to see how many rape apologists regularly post on HFBoards. Makes me f***in' sick.

 

[BLNY]

Possible. I don't know how many years they had/have on a contract. They could demand that some/all of the fees for X years be donated to charities supporting victims of abuse.

Breaking News: turns out hockey culture is pretty toxic

More like teenage boys are pretty toxic.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

Yikes. Double yikes at some of the weird comments. Not sure if young be doing misguided edgelord stuff, or if genuinely the kind of people you'd have to keep a close eye on around your daughter.

Canada hockey yeeeee haw

 

[Kleefeld]

It would be lovely if anyone defending and promoting rape culture on this board would at least get a timeout for a while to show that the mods understand the severity.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Yeah, there needs to be jail time for this. Not just for the pit stains that did it but the cancers that buried it under the rug.

The amazing thing about this comment is that it basically says "it doesn't matter if someone raped someone if it happened 10 years ago".

I'd say the amazing thing about that post is dropping the good old "statue" of limitations!

 

[CanadienShark]

Oh no... when will this ever stop? It's honestly just sad and disheartening to see. Hockey in general has had a lot of bad stories coming out these last few years.

 

[Uncle Rotter]

I cannot even understand how these group of guys would want to f*** one person together to begin with. Like where tf does the mindset for that come from?!

"Bonding"

Frost trial raises issue of sexual behaviour among hockey players

Claims by one of David Frost's alleged victims that hockey players have group sex seems to have validity, although his assertion that it's a common form of team bonding is a matter of debate.

Canada, what’s going on ?

Russia, what's going on?

I get the seriousness of the other case but can we hold off on the hot takes here? This literally tells us nothing

They have a video tape of the event.

Rick Westhead is the grim reaper.

Everyone is coming out of the woodwork looking for a payday. These guys could be innocent and people are ready to hang them. You guys would make the worst jurors.

They have a video tape showing the six players in action.

The tape was destroyed, one of the people who saw it 19 years ago thinks there may be a copy.

HF Rape Apologists: "These hos must all be lying. Only in it for a pay day, amiright?"

When girls throw themselves at male celebrities, the general sentiment is "you go girl, shoot your shot" regardless of who the girl is.

When guys throw themselves at female celebrities, the general sentiment is "ew what a creeper" unless the guy is attractive enough.

So is it OK for the women celebrities to have 0 respect for the men who chase after them?

Personally, one girl looked up my home phone number through the middle school directory and tried on her first cold call(yeah, weird) to have phone sex with me. Then tried to get me to meet her in the bathroom for real sex like a day or two afterwards. I didn't even know who the hell she was because I didn't notice her in the classes I was in.

If a boy/man did that...yeah...I don't think it's a forgotten event known only by me, her, and some friends I clearly heard over the phone.

Although...it was kinda validating that a ugly chick somehow crushed on me that hard...(or was it a trap?)

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

People who call things a culture are looking to create an industry out things.

Or maybe, sometimes, they just don't want to get raped.

The flood gates are open, this probably is just the beginning. Unfortunately.

I have no idea if the alleged victim is lying, if she is (in a righteous world) her sentence would be twice as severe as a rapist.

A timeout for anyone who reserves judgement and understands that false accusations of rape are quite common shows what a fool you are

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

The people crying for the death penalty without seeing anything more than someone's allegations are just as insufferable as the ones who immediately insist nothing bad happened. Both groups so annoying.

Except in the overwhelming majority of instances, the alleged crime is what actually happened. But yeah - totes the same thing.

I bet there are very fine people on both sides as well.

Some of the comments on here are straight caveman material.

False accusations of rape are quite common? Source that suggests that please.

Certainly looks that way. Why would anyone be surprised?
