I am sure that Dube was instructed not to talk about it to anyone except to deny any wrongdoing.

I don't know why some people are so against due process before going straight to cancelling someone. Take Jonah Gadjovich for example. He was falsely identified in the HC settlement as one of the accused and it turns out he wasn't even in the room. If he was just straight up cancelled based on just an accusation, he would have unfairly lost his NHL career over it.

I think this all started with optimalyates when someone dissed the oilers. Now he spams the thread.

People who suspect they are going to have criminal charges laid against them likely DO have mental health concerns.

Why would it have to be an "excuse"?

It wouldn't be an excuse, it would be true. It's just that some people are hating on the Flames for their presser that said that they were putting him on leave for mental health reasons. It's likely that they didn't know any more than the rest of us, because, as pointed out above, his lawyer would have instructed him not to tell them anything about the sexual assault investigation.
