Additional allegations rolling in.

I would not be surprised if the beans get spilled on other coaches now that this news has come out.

I would imagine some coaches have done much worse.

As others have said I can only imagine what Keenan has said/done in the past, among others.


I just wished we lived in a society were this kind of thing is dealt with immediately, not dug up from 10 years ago.

I can understand the culture is entrenched and is is difficult to step up to an authority figure but you wonder why it took this long after he was removed from that organization.


I waited until other sources backed up the statements made. Now that others have stepped forward backing up Aliu and additional allegations have been brought forward it is clear Peters was in the wrong.

10+ years ago we frowned upon victims.

Now we live in a victim culture.

Cherry Babcock Peters.

Lotta spots opening up for fresh faces.

Whether you agree with the cancel culture type stuff or not, the NHL has had the same cast of management faces for decades.
Time for a change anyways.
I'm more interested in how new faces will change the game/tactics

This is just the tip of the ice berg.

Can’t even imagine the abuse torts is guilty of.
Sutter brothers be next.
Unless this gets nipped somehow a lot of the ‘old time hockey’ guys are getting hockey’s version of me too’ed


for some reason, i see torts being the least guilty lol
Like he's being himself on and off cam, no filter, brutally honest, doesn't give a fuck what reporters or others think etc.

Add Marc Crawford
https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/brent-sopel-marc-crawford-canucks-coach


Digging deeper, former NHL defenceman and Spittin’ Chiclets co-host Ryan Whitney asked this question: “Is it true he would go up and down the bench and kick guys?”

Sopel replied:

“He kicked me, he choked me, he grabbed the back of my jersey and pulled me back. He attacked guys personally."

although reading the entire article, it seems like crawford actually did that shit to motivate sopel and get the most out of him, considering he played sopel during his tenure as a canuck lol

Everyone is stepping forward now. Before you were more likely to keep quiet.

I guess this is true.

As previously said this investigating is probably dragging on due to legal reasons.

Calgary ownership wants to make sure this guy is fired properly because they don't want to get sued.

To me it is clear the allegations are true.

If Peters was a good guy he would have had someone from that locker room step up for him.

These comments were made in front of dozens of witnesses and the fact nobody has defended him is an indictment.

Previous comments will follow you in this era. Being a coach will be extremely difficult moving forward. You can't slip up at all.

If it's "extremely difficult" for someone not to be abusive or racist or just a douche in general then they need to find help ASAP.

Doing any of these things is not a slip up, it's just being a bad person lol.

If you know how many hockey parents are none of this is a surprise. This shit carries from pee wee to the big leagues.
