How do you think she feels having had this picture thrust into her public life? All her friends, family, professors, future boyfriends, possible future children. This picture may come to haunt her at any time.


To me, it was kind of disgusting that Montreal selected him. What disgusts me more? Not a mention of her, or helping her, or reaching out to her. It was all about him.
1. He wouldnt be around to be drafted.
2. Unfortunately, as much as we may idolize the sport that we love there are many disgusting people who play it.

Its not the NHL's responsibility to compensate victims. It would be nice, but thats just not the case. We as fans can choose to judge that behaviour as we so wish, but it doesnt make the teams or the League responsible.

The sad fact of the matter is that he's a kid and the Habs are a business. This will be swept away.
