I find all the guys you just listed just as reprehensible, but 24 is more than old enough to know sexual assault is bad.
I'm not "wildly throwing around" accusations. Again people are acting like this is new information and we don't know what happened. Kyle Beach has come forward. His story is all over the internet for anyone to read. Brent Seabrook has been named as a player who knew what was going on and did nothing. We know players on the Blackhawks made fun of Kyle Beach for what happened to him. I am giving Brent the benefit of the doubt that he was not one of the guys who did that. He still sat back and watched a young man's career get destroyed after doing nothing to stop the sexual assaults that lead to it. He did nothing to stop any of that because winning a trophy mattered more.
Brent Seabrook should be ashamed of himself.

I think the Flames management have more information on the actual facts than any of us do. I have enough faith in the Hockey Ops department led by Craig Conroy to have made the right decision after reviewing those facts.
