I'd say his job and reputation took a bigger hit not doing anything about the and brushing it under the rug.More importantly, where is the proof that he was involved in the cover up? So many people just skimmed through the investigation, saw Q was mad that a meeting during the playoffs was being conducted about a non team member, and concluded that he was a monster that was involved in a large cover up operation.
Like the dude is in the middle of the playoffs, coaching the most stacked team to ever be assembled in the salary cap era, and there is a meeting about a player who has literally no chance of joining the team. Like can he just focus on the task at hand? I don’t think any coach would be prepared to take their mind off in between game adjustments in the Stanley cup playoffs to discuss personal incidents regarding a player who is not on the team.
Also if anybody remembers that time period, they know Q was in the hot seat should that team not go all the way. His job and career reputation was on the line.
I side with Q. Sorry I can’t join the virtue signaling groupthink that devolves in these threads.

It's quite misleading to say 'no action was taken' by a man who has no obligation to take action, and is not the ideal person who should be taking action on the matter. I think framing him and other people on the team as willing participants in the cover up is an attack job simply because it infers that they are in a management position with the powers and duties to take action.I'd say his job and reputation took a bigger hit not doing anything about the and brushing it under the rug.
"The investigation found that “no action was taken” following the revelations, and said that Quenneville “said it was hard for the team to get where it was,” and that they couldn’t deal with the issue during a playoff run."
Stan Bowman, Joel Quenneville reinstated by NHL two years after sexual assault scandal
Former Chicago Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman, head coach Joel Quenneville and assistant general manager Al MacIssac have been reinstated by the NHL more than two years after they stepped down from their roles following an investigation into their handling of sexual assault allegations...www.nbcchicago.com
I read it, just did a little more critical thinking with the information I was armed with instead of taking things at face value.It's all in the lawyers report, if you care to read it.
True. He was trying to prepare for the cup run. It wasn't his responsibility to take matter on his hands. He barely even knew the black ace who was harmed.Glad Q is back in the league, guy really did nothing wrong and gets unnecessary hate from jealous fan bases.

They're putting Colin Campbell into the hall, so is it really all that surprising?Oh yeah, let's just reinstate rapist enablers, bravo NHL.
Not nearly as surprising as seeing an account from 2010 with 4 postsThey're putting Colin Campbell into the hall, so is it really all that surprising?
Probably because I used to travel for work, doing 60-80 hour weeks, while living vicariously through another user.Not nearly as surprising as seeing an account from 2010 with 4 posts

Quite edgy of you to say. You are so brave.Say less. Your critical thinking is not going as well for you as you think it is.
Not as brave as stumping for a guy who brushed off a rape committed by one of his direct reports because it was such hard work "coaching the most stacked team to ever be assembled in the salary cap era".Quite edgy of you to say. You are so brave.
One team is going to gamble on Q, and that team is going to win a lot of hockey games.
Well again, he is not a chicago city detective, nor is he in an HR/management position. It is not his duty to investigate rape allegations. I know this is hard to understand, but his duties revolve around coaching.Not as brave as stumping for a guy who brushed off a rape committed by one of his direct reports
Why did you put this in quotes? Are you inferring that coaching the 2010 blackhawks wasn't difficult, or are you inferring that they weren't the most stacked team assembled in the salary cap era? Either way, weird hill to die on.because it was such hard work "coaching the most stacked team to ever be assembled in the salary cap era".
You sure do love being dramatic.I'm sure Quenneville will be forever grateful that you carried him through this like he's the Whitney Houston to your Kevin Costner.

He chose not to step outside his bounds as head coach, and cause a media distraction over an allegation. So lets say he did what Lazlo Hollyfeld wanted him to do, which is start investigating the allegation, turn the locker room upside down, and get the media in a frenzy. The rape allegation turns out to be false or misleading, and the blackhawks get bounced out of the playoffs. How does coach Q look then? Everyone would say that he should have let the higher ups/management/HR handle this allegation and that he should have been more focused on getting his coaching duties instead of investigating allegations of rape.It's not a gamble in terms of his coaching ability. It's whether the organization wants to hire a coach who chose to ignore the sexual assault of one of the team's prospects because he didn't want any "distractions."

He was the head coach. There were allegations that one of his coaches sexually assaulted one of his players.
That is absolutely within his bounds as head coach.
Why did I put it in quotes? Because it was a direct quote from your post. Do you not know what quotation marks are for?Well again, he is not a chicago city detective, nor is he in an HR/management position. It is not his duty to investigate rape allegations.
