I played college football, and what Mailloux did was unfortunately in every looker room.

He paid is due. However, I’m wondering if he’s stupid, because only the stupids get cought ..:sarcasm:
Different countries. Different mentalities regarding those situations. Also, and significantly more important in this case, police corps doing the right thing.

You can’t punish him at every turn. I don’t know what to tell you but he was tried judged and punished already. Court and hockey.

After that, society grants you the opportunity to live a life among others without the threat of being re-punished as nauseam. That’s how it is, no matter how you feel about it.

If/when he establishes himself as a pro, I hope he takes an active role supporting & funding initiatives to address gender-based violence & misogyny.

It's Renaud's biggest scoop of his career and he sounds so desperate. "Multiple sources" beurk.

The French one is mediocre I guess.
I don’t like him but why lie? Renaud’s broken plenty of bigger things.

Imagine trying to ruin your 17 year old teammates life for doing something tons of guys do privately in an attempt to impress his older teammates.

Even if certain players had an issue it should have been handled internally.

Makes me happy knowing he has a legitimate shot at an NHL career while these guys are stuck playing third division hockey in Sweden.

She was an adult that made sex to a drunk minor. Turn sex arround and you guys called it rape…
With the ages of the participants not in any sane jurisdiction.
It was posted in a private group.......dumb move but not remotely as bad as some are determined to make it seem. He paid the price and it is in the past now can we just move on.
Dumb, rude, and thoughtless, and he, unlike the many NHLers who have done worse was punished and shamed. He’s cleared to play now, so it’s done.

Have to see if his brain is sufficient to let his tools make him effective.

- What Mailloux did was a crime
- Maybe not "tons of guys" are doing that in Sweden, hence why it didn't fly at all amongst his teammates

Just say you hate women and cut to the chase here.

Mailloux was in the wrong and we need more young men in dressing rooms, schools, houses, that will speak up when men are treating women like sex trophys to parade around to their friends.

These were accusations that the NHL can't act on and I didn't see anything about convictions as I had mentioned. The world is full of rapey men and women who lie about it and vice versa so without a conviction of any sort this stuff is meaningless.

Am I wrong? Was there a settlement? Even settlements don't necessarily imply guilt as sometimes people pay to not have to go through with the legal process which can be more expensive and very public. Or, innocent people sometimes settle out of fear of being wrongly convicted.

Why even mention the WJC team as once again there are no convictions and without convictions are at the very least pending charges there is nothing that can be done by the NHL. You also can't just paint those entire rosters as guilty.

So once again are there any NHLers that escaped discipline/repercussions following criminal convictions?

edit: Upon further research all four were acquitted so there is absolutely nothing that the NHL could do. I do agree that any of them who had sex with her would qualify as a dirtbag as there were two 30 year olds, a 27 year old and a 26 year old among the males and she was only 17 which is legal in D.C. Reprehensible, yes but not illegal therefore not punishable by the NHL.

Case fell apart due to a technicality, Cop went public, while DA was putting the pieces carefully together

D.C. law-enforcement officials gave comments to the press without the evidence to back them up. Lt. Reginald L. Smith, then a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police Department, told the Washington Post that the cops “have sufficient grounds to believe that a criminal offense did occur.”
All 4-Caps players were also traded away / allowed. to walk away a few weeks later..
