I mean the drug and alcohol use are actually happening at the NHL level, so they can use people to deal with those directly.
This is the first case of the actual sexual abuse happening at the NHL level. Now, sure there are dozens of cases from junior. But the after-effects manifest in things that I am not sure the league can deal with specifically, aside from having a general policy for players to access for psychological and emotional problems (like Price just invoked).
