I'm going to give that poster the benefit of the doubt, Holland was heavily involved in hockey Canada for sometime. though, it doesnt appear he was involved with anything related to 2018.

Quit telling people to stop joking about something. Some of us understand humour and enjoy it, especially with difficult topics like this.

Two former Quebec junior hockey players were handed prison sentences Monday for sexually assaulting a minor at a hotel in June 2021 in the aftermath of a Victoriaville Tigres championship celebration.
During a hearing in Quebec City, Nicolas Daigle, 21, was sentenced to 32 months in jail, and Massimo Siciliano, 21, was given a 30-month sentence.

The pair pleaded guilty last October to sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl in the early hours of June 6, 2021; Daigle also pleaded guilty to two charges of filming and exhibiting a video of the act. The guilty pleas came as they were set to begin an 11-day criminal trial.
At the time of the assault they were members of the Victoriaville team in the Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League, and the club was celebrating after winning the championship trophy on June 5, 2021.

The victim agreed to visit the room only with Daigle, but when she arrived she discovered Siciliano, whom she did not know, was also there. She said she felt trapped before she was assaulted by both of them, at times simultaneously, for about 40 minutes.
During that time, Daigle filmed the woman without her knowledge.

At one point Daigle left the hotel room and Siciliano continued to assault her. Later, she started crying and sought refuge in the bathroom. Meanwhile, Daigle had gone downstairs and was showing video of the assault to teammates and a coach in a conference room where the party was still going on.

A team employee learned of the video and intervened, making Daigle delete it. The victim only learned of the video's existence the following day.

Here's hoping that somehow, someday, Daigle and Siciliano learn how to human.

The coach sounds like a top notch person.

Paulie always with knives out immediately for the coach in every situation with little to go on.

Was a coach mean to you, or worse, in your past somewhere?

We are in desperate need of a culture overhaul in Canadian U18 AAA & Jr A tiers.

The fact that Daigle showed the video to the coach, and it was not the coach who intervened, seems like something to go on.

And CHL, these guys were playing in the Q.

30-32 months after pleading guilty to avoid a trial.

The Hockey Canada Five are probably crapping themselves now. I expect higher sentences if they are convicted.

Also, I wonder who that coach was that the players thought would want to see a video of teens having sex.

Imagine the ####ed up relationship you must have with your players that they even think you want to see that.

How could you know what the coach did?

If the coach did anything why did it take another team employee to tell the player to delete the video?

Do you ever post anything that isn't you trying to antagonize someone?

So you were there?

This happens every time. A short article and a bunch of people jump to conclusions and fill in the thousands of gaps based on what they assume. You think the journalist that wrote that article was there and has all of the information?

I don’t see the point.

[Paulie Walnuts]

It’s cool.

We find out about players raping someone sharing the video with the team and coach, and all you can find from that is to come in and protect the coach ?

Well the only thing that it should have said was the player showed it to the coach, or the coach found out about it and immediately confiscated the phone and called the authorities and reported the incident. Since it doesn’t say that there is a pretty good inference that it didn’t occur and even worse since the assaulter decided to show the video to the coach it’s a reasonable inference that the player felt comfortable showing their coach that.

Right, cause an article written by today’s finest journalists about an incident three years ago are going to be 100% on top of all the fine details.
