But it's not a job. He's not under contract with any NHL team... as far as we know he's never even been offered a contract and I don't think it's realistic to expect the NHL to collect a Police check on every single draft eligible player worldwide (some of whom would be under the age of majority). Even if they did it would still have revealed (presumably) no criminal record since I doubt the police would say anything about an ongoing active investigation (I doubt they'd do that if he was an adult at the time and doubly so since he was a minor).
