That is for management to discuss with their GM.)

I understand he was restricted in what he could say from both a legal perspective as well as a public relations perspective.
I get he can't and shouldn't speak to any specifics.
I think there was more to be said on how they plan to do things moving forward and about the positive steps they can take right now to address any shortcomings in either their hiring practices or how the organization views inclusivity and the current hockey culture.
Brad had no issue spelling out that he did a 'full scrub', his due dilligence and spoke with previous employers about Peters, so I don't buy that he couldn't also make mention of other aspects of the hiring process.
I understand he doesn't want to put anything out there, but he was very quick to defend their hiring process, and for me, that was very CYA.
