Five players Suspended by the NHL in Connection with 2018 Junior Team Canada: Latest Statement from Bill Daly
It's surprising how long this issue has been on hold, but then again, according to Bill Daly and the NHL, a major announcement is always "imminent."
There's an update!
As part of an interview just conducted by Michael Russo of The Athletic, the NHL's Deputy Commissioner responded to recent rumors regarding the investigation into the 2018 Canadian junior team.
Daly (again) announced that the results will be published very soon.
At the same time, it's going to become inevitable, because the NHL certainly cannot wait until the beginning of the NHL training camps, and the camps are starting very soon. Time is pressing for them.
Will they let the suspended players start the camps? I wouldn't think so.
Recall that, according to reliable sources, five players, including some very well-known names, will be suspended by the NHL shortly (following the investigation).
"... The investigation needs to take the time it needs to take. We want to do a thorough job and have all the possible information. It's the right thing to do under the circumstances. I believe we should expect to unveil the investigation report very soon."
"Then, as for the aftermath, we are currently in the unknown. At the risk of sounding redundant, it's coming very soon." - Bill Daly
The truth will soon come out, from both the NHL and the London police.
More details to follow.
