You are suggesting there may be an explanation that isn't repugnantly racist that explains describing rap music (I assume) as n... music? do pray tell let us know what other explanation that could be, make something up, anything, I don't even need it to have any connection to the story, I just want to know what the 'other side' to 'turn that n... music off' might be in your mind.

Yeah none of these players would be offering up what they're offering up now in the safety of hockey's me too moment (not that I blame them).

So even if you had the correct list of players to ask 2 years ago you would have gotten a significantly toned down story.

Because they don't like him. The people who are critical of Treliving for his handling of Peters are by-and-large the same people who have been highly critical of Treliving for his past decisions as well.

Even now, the player that got hit by Peters is remaining anonymous.

Coaches can ruin a player's career if you look at them the wrong way. It's no secret why players would rather not speak on such issues and why you only heard about any of these allegations from former players who have nothing to lose. Marner barely wanted to admit the list situation happened, and that was much smaller in nature versus the Peters one. Akim is right, playing the race card (even if legit) when you are 20 years old without a name to yourself was a sure way to get black listed.

His acumen for hiring coaches is awful. Look at Peters.

Is there a chance this happens again? It's possible, there's a precedent.

No, the media outlet is repeating the story. What if media outlets aren't truthful?

Considering it's Facebook, 90% are likely boomers and don't understand the concept. I know I had a very trying conversation with my 66 year old father about this exact issue today.

Man, thanks for the laugh. Thought I had read it all today.



No, it's not a conspiracy. Peters is an ####### and a prick. Also an emotional and physical abuser.

You're implying I'm looking for, or expecting Peters to come out with a denial of the situation. I'm not.

I'm waiting for an official handling of the situation by the team that has official record from Aliu, Peters, the other players present at the time and anyone else relevant to the incident. Peters may get to release a statement, or he may not.

We aren't the people that get to say case closed.

Well, now that this is out there, unless there is some kind of proof that these allegations are not true, then the Flames need to get rid of Peters. It’s a bad look if they keep him. You ha e to wonder how many players will avoid Calgary or want out if they keep him.
