I for one would love to hear the names of the girls that brought the complaints. This has destroyed their NHL ‘s careers..

The NHL is going to go the same route as Bud Light, and I could care less. As for Hadi Kalakache, it's good to know he has the patent on the moral high ground and is such a beautiful, virtuous human being. I still am confused though, why the most virtuous people are always the most hateful...perhaps someday.

I personally doubt this young lady was interested in these activities, and it's quite possible she went along out of fear (though, I don't believe any evidence was presented that they actually and wilfully intimidated her), and it's reasonable to wonder what these young men were thinking, but we must also consider the evidence we don't like. We don't get to pick and choose the evidence we accept. There is also not insignificant evidence she went along willingly (though I personally have my doubts), and it is reasonable to assume these young men, a little over excited, stopped thinking with the head on their shoulders. I can't really blame hockey players for filming her apparent consent; there are a lot of gold diggers after their money - perhaps a testament to the times we live in.

Those blaming them are, in all likelihood, the same people who destroyed the families that would have allowed fathers to give these young men better life advice. Kalakache should remove the log in his own eye before trying to pick out the sliver in theirs.

This was probably one terrible misunderstanding, and they may have acted poorly, but they are not guilty. This trial by public commentary is getting out of hand.
