I think it's unlikely that many players will speak out against HC.
While only a few have actually experienced the issues being discussed, I would imagine that every single player knows a player who has experienced it. Speaking out against HC now would come across as somewhat hypocritical and could also carry the risk that HC turns around and calls them out, or calls out someone they know as being directly hypocritical.
There is also the fact that many of the players - and ALL of the star players - have been a big part of HC teams, at the international level.
I would imagine that most of the players simply want to see this whole thing quietly go away, without them having to become involved in any way.
