New Information
After the case was reopened, nearly every player on the 2018 team released a statement regarding their lack of involvement in the situation. The 8 players who didn't release a statement immediately took the spotlight as expected players involved in the incident.
On his recent podcast, Frank Severalli revealed that this isn't necessarily the case. He said the following:
"There are some players who said they had nothing to do with this story and made an official statement or asked their agent to make one who are involved."
Immenent Decision
This news is obviously major, as it completely opens up the possibilities of who was involved. It also reveals that Severalli, and likely other journalists, know the list of names who were involved.
It was previously reported that the NHL is on the verge of making a decision regarding the suspensions of the players. It was also reported that it was 5 players involved. With this new information, we will have to wait for the official announcement to know who is at fault.
