It's unclear from the actual report to what extent Quenneville knew about the incident, as several people in the report claimed Aldrich tried to sleep with John Doe and threatened his career, but were not specifically aware of the extent of the sexual assault (even Gary, who took it to management, did not seem fully aware from what I can tell).
I agree that Quenneville may have only been reacting to what Bowman told him (that Aldrich tried to climb into bed with the victim). But I don't buy that Quenneville didn't learn more details over the past 10 years and just found out about the allegations this summer. It just seems unlikely that the head of the coaching staff wouldn't have learned about it from someone.
