Kane didn't go to trial because there wasn't any evidence even remotely close (or at least that's my assumption as it was never made public) to what has already been made public in this case. Lets just say there's more than enough evidence that even a not guilty verdict would not change the public opinion on these players.
Well it looks like you’ve already come to your conclusion
Are you referring to Rick Westhead?

Kane would've also lost his NHL career if he was at the level of one of these players. But because he is Patrick Kane, he didn't. Brendan Leipsic lost his NHL career for shit talking his teammates in a private group chat, because some players aren't worth the headache.
Are you referring to Rick Westhead?
But yeah, it may be done to influence the proceedings beyond the evidence that is presented:

So look to see what the accused are wearing light coloured suits by the end of the trial. Hopefully it will continue to be reported
Why even throw out misinformation like that?
The case can't prove their innocence, it can only fail to prove they are guilty. A "not guilty" verdict doesn't mean the allegations were fabricated, it just means for any number of reasons the case could not prove without a reasonable doubt that they were guilty. So to countersue, they'd need to prove she fabricated everything, and if this case is being brought in criminal court, we can pretty safely assume there is enough admissible evidence that proves there is at least some truth to the accusations. It wouldn't have got this far otherwise. Whether it is enough to prove a guilty verdict remains to be seen.
It will be good to see the losers finally get the punishment they deserve.Jury selected today, 11 women, 3 men, if you are into the binary thing
2 alternates. Whatever. 12 will decide. Trial expected to last 8 weeks
Each of the accused has a team of lawyers, each allowed to cross-examine
But no doubt she has been given five teams of lawyers, to allow for the possibility of justice
Among (many) others, Makar is a prospective witness
A historic moment
Rick Westhead: Jury selected at London hockey trial | TSN
The five former members of Canada’s 2018 World Junior hockey team appeared in a London, Ont., court together for the first time Tuesday morning as their sexual assault trial began.www.tsn.ca
Sorry, meant to say trials, as cases is a broader term
The key here is if it doesn’t interest you, then you treat it like everything else and go about your business and not be hateful. It’s really quite simple, mate.
I don't think there is anything good about this, regardless of the jury's decision
Does that shock you? Convicted rapists have played in the NHL. The way teams ignore stuff like that to win is some truly disgusting shit. The NHL is absolutely no different than any other league.
This is so true. No one is gonna do a lot of time regardless of the outcome. Canadian judicial system is a lot more lenient then the US
The amount of sexual assault cases coming out of hockey the last few years is quite alarming. This isn’t some one off situation. If you googled the other ones, you’d see there’s definitely a problem. Hell the NHL allowing dirtbags like Nick Cousins, Zolnierczyk, Mailloux, etc to play in the NHL shows they really don’t give a shit about violence towards women or misconduct towards them.
There is a lot of concern about hockey culture. Westhead is supposed to be putting out a book on the subject in November or whatever, sometime later this year?
"No offense, but it sounds like a bunch of Commie gobbledygook." Is the exact quote.
I don’t see how it isn’t on topic, the culture of hockey with these recent incidents and the many times the league has turned a blind eye towards things like this is alarming and also enabling.
You are absolutely correct it is on topic
Who was being hateful?
