When the said player is a 4th line player on a non-playoff team and you just got $700m in public money...why you'd continue to dress such a player would be unfathomable. There's actually zero reason to do so. Very stupid behavior on the flames if they knew Dube is one of the rapists and kept him around the team and playing games.

With regard to the first paragraph currently there are only allegations and even then clearly none specifically tagged to players publicly yet, so that would be inappropriate to treat people as guilty of something they are not even currently alleged to have done.
With regard to the second paragraph there's probably a whole can of worms optically for the organization to treat Dube the way you suggested in light of the above point when the son of the CSEC president & CEO also falls into the same group of players on the 2018 WJC team.

Toronto lawyer Scott Fenton wrote to Global News at the time that his firm represents one of these players and that he consulted with counsel for the other players. He declined to identify that player. He told Global:
"None of the players you reference engaged in any wrongdoing, all of the players co-operated fully with the independent London Police Service investigation in 2018, and all players were then cleared of any wrongdoing.
