NHL saying 'hold on' to Hockey Canada five is a good message, but still lacking
Let's begin by giving the NHL some credit: they made clear this week that just because a court says you're not guilty of something, that doesn't mean you are suddenly in the 'good' column again. Article content 'The allegations made in this case, even if not determined to have been criminal, were very disturbing and the behaviour at issue was unacceptable,' the NHL said Thursday about the Hockey Canada five being found not guilty of sexual assault. 'We will be reviewing and considering the judge's findings. While we conduct that analysis and determine next steps, the players charged in this case are ineligible to play in the league.' Article content Article content Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Cal Foote, Michael McLeod and Dillon Dube are still on the hot seat as far as the NHL is concerned. There's an expectation of good conduct here, the NHL is reminding everyone. Article content And they're right on that. Article content The NHL's standard player contract has a clause declaring players must conduct themselves on and off the ice 'according to the highest standards of honesty, morality, fair play and sportsmanship, and to refrain from conduct detrimental to the best interest of the Club, the League, or professional hockey generally.' Article content In other words, do what you want on your own time, but if your dirty laundry gets out, we're going to have to talk about it. Article content That, presumably, is the crux of the NHLPA's challenge to the league's eligibility position. Article content 'After missing more than a full season of their respective NHL careers, they should now have the opportunity to return to work. The NHL's declaration that the players are 'ineligible' to play pending its further analysis of the court's findings is inconsistent with the discipline procedures set forth in the CBA,' the PA insists. The PA's job is to protect their members' working conditions. Article content Article content But in the end, both the league and the PA are missing the bigger picture: there's a broader cultural leadership role to play and neither organization has said or done what needs to be here. Article content Article content And a huge factor in this is the NHL being the only league of the big four North American professional sports leagues to not have a clearly defined policy around domestic violence and sexual assault. Article content The NFL, for instance, does. That's how they handed Deshaun Watson an 11-game ban after being accused by more than two dozen women of sexual assault and sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions. Article content The NFL took those accusations and had their own investigation under the auspices of the policy. Article content But everything the NHL does is ad hoc. They have an amorphous standard that they can enforce capriciously. Doing it this way doesn't exactly lay out to players what the expectations are beyond 'don't get your name splashed about in public.' Article content That's no way to lead. All it does is perpetuate a 'boys will boys' culture, where the worst sin is getting caught. Article content

In all, the team seized two vehicles, multiple weapons, more than a kilogram of illicit drugs, 55 cartons of illegal cigarettes and more than $63,000 in cash over the span, Burnaby RCMP said in a news release Friday. The first traffic stop took place July 8 near Beresford Street and McKay Avenue. BGET officers stopped a Porsche and made 'observations' that led them to arrest the occupant, police said. A search of the vehicle led to the seizure of the illegal cigarettes, plus nearly $16,000 in cash. Burnaby RCMP seizure 1 Police shared this photo of items seized during the first traffic stop. (Burnaby RCMP) On July 14, the second stop occurred during proactive patrols near Boundary Road and Canada Way, according to Burnaby RCMP. This time, BGET officers stopped a Tesla and noted that the driver had 'a criminal drug trafficking history.' 'Observations made by the officers resulted in the arrest of the occupant, and a subsequent search of the vehicle resulted in the seizure of the vehicle, two cellular phones, a collapsible baton, miscellaneous illicit drugs and over $4,000 in cash,' the release reads. Burnaby RCMP seizure 2 Police shared this image of the items seized during the second traffic stop. (Burnaby RCMP) Two days later, on July 16, the third traffic stop occurred, this time on Imperial Street near Gray Avenue. In this case, too, the driver had a criminal drug trafficking history, according to police. The driver also had a history of assault with a weapon. After arresting the vehicle's occupant, officers seized it, along with two cellphones, two knives, more than a kilogram of 'miscellaneous illicit drugs,' and nearly $44,000 in cash. Burnaby RCMP seizure 3 Police shared this image of items seized during the third traffic stop. (Burnaby RCMP) While all three drivers were arrested, none of them have been charged. The investigations are ongoing and 'appropriate charges will be forwarded' when they are concluded, police said. 'These are just three examples of the great work that our BGET officers are doing day in and day out,' said Insp. Matt Toews, in the release. 'Every time we disrupt a drug organization like this is one step closer to safer streets and a safer community.'
