Hey everybody.

Bratt is an Allstar now, remember?

We are so pre-occupied talking about a Piece of sh*t that it's overshadowing what should be a Celebratory mood here for one of our players.

There has to be precedent for interpreting that statute. I'd be surprised if the court was out of line with a potential timeline.
Many times defendants want a longer period before trial to give more time to prepare a defense, and keep their freedom if their are out on bail. Plus, the longer a case takes the more things can fall apart for the prosecution.

It doesn't look too fantastic, but I'm sure this team has a lot of players that will turn on the jets before the season is over.

I guess we'll have to see - assuming the NHL takes action to suspend them it would occur right after the London Police press conference on the 5th?

There's also this though:


That’s wrong. From the Athletic article on the commissioner’s powers:

it appears to have been outlined in 2016



In 2016, the Supreme Court of Canada made a landmark decision in R v Jordan, which set strict time limits for criminal trials. According to this ruling, cases in provincial courts should be completed within 18 months from when charges are laid, and cases in superior courts should be completed within 30 months.


(by the way, my mother always said i should've been a lawyer)

Can't believe this happened, I bet he's innocent!

*Goes through two years of jokes about McLeod going to jail for exactly this reason*

Like when we signed our GM to an extension the night before two of our players left the club because they're being charged with sexual assault?

Nothing weird about getting Lazar, Tierney, Nosek, and Bowers btw. Stop saying that's very weird.

Okay now that's not fair, man.

I get that's the big story but this is the Devils TEAM discussion thread and well...Bratt IS part of the team...and he's an AllStar for the first time....


I hope you're not thinking I'm trying to minimize the severity of the situation here.

I'm aware that McLeod is in deep sh*t.


But the focus also has to come back to the Devils currently on the roster as well.
