Again, I am against the use of the word, but an incident from a decade ago, while working for another team, in another league, makes this very different IMO. If he had said it while working for the Flames, nail him to a cross. But he hasn't displayed any of these negative behaviors while employed by the Flames. That's where I have troubles with this. I think he's a tool bag, but I can only judge him by what he's done while with the Flames.

2 points, having a proven history of buggery isn't a crime or illegal or offensive in any way shape or form and has nothing to do with the allegations against Spacey, I have a proven history of intercourse with women, doesn't mean I'm a rapist.
Secondly it is clear by now Peters is guilty of what he has been accused of, if he had confirmed and apologised publicly maybe he gets some benefit of changing times etc, but he hasn't so far, you cant be forgiven if you don't confess.
