That 100% absolves the Flames from this in my eyes. The Flames can't formally assume a connection, or guilt.
It's pretty greasy by Dube to get out in front of the other players requesting their leave and request leave due to mental health though...even if it is true that he's suffering.

Frank is doing the team and NHL's dirty work here for sure. Remember when he said the leave of absence for Hart and Dube were not related or connected to the WJC team.
I have absolutely no connections to the Flames or Hockey Canada, but on Friday night before this all broke out I had been told that Dube and Hart would be implicated in this and were likely to be two of the big names.
If I knew about it before his leave of absence then there is no way the Flames had no idea.
