The only repercussion with will be his performance on the ice.

There will be very minor blowback, if any. Carter Hart WILL play for the Knights.
No one in Vegas will even know who Carter Hart is let alone where Canada is.

I bet it won’t get much coverage there.

I’d be surprised if any of that happens. Every sport has players with histories. It generally gets forgotten if they play well.

We are talking about a country that has a rapist president and very little pushback towards a fascist regime. Remember Hart was found not guilty of sexual assault so while some in the media may bring this up as a hot topic story, the average uninformed US fan knows nothing about the case other than he was found not guilty and as with their president likely just shrugs their shoulders and only cares about what's next on their instagram or tiktok feed.

Vegas also has Kai Uchacz in the system, who was kicked off the Thunderbirds for racially taunting a black teammate, including with a banana.

People will overlook things pretty quickly if it means winning, still lots of Gilmour jerseys at the dome.

In criminal court, of a particular offence? Yes.

In public opinion, of being a creep and having no common sense? No.

I would not be surprised if people in Vegas are more appalled by Jaywalking than sexual assault when it comes to where criminal actions rate on a scale of 1 to 100.

Still, it's gotta mess with at least Hill and Schmid's mind sets. Hill has proven himself and Schmid is playing very well and here comes a guy who has that rep, hasn't played in two years and he's being given a long look (and it seems like a lock on a contract).

I'd happily take Schmid off their hands if they want to roll the dice with Hart (despite how well Cooley played last game).

We've seen this repeatedly with the suspicious cap circumvention, to turfing players that are going through tough personal circumstances, to unceremoniously dumping aging talent. An absolutely cutthroat and amoral organization. Perfect for that city.
Players keep signing there and wanting to get traded there so can't be that bad.
