Blackhawks, Kyle Beach to meet Tuesday, report says
Kyle Beach, who said he was the victim of sexual assault at the hands of a Chicago Blackhawks employee a decade ago, will meet with team officials on Tuesday, The Athletic reported.
Chicago chief executive Danny Wirtz said he has instructed team lawyers to “see if we can reach a fair resolution consistent with the totality of the circumstances.” Loggans said Bettman expressed his “sincere regret” over what Beach had experienced. He also offered the NHL’s help with psychological services for him and his family and anything else that the league had available.
“They looked at it as though it was a privileged communication and they couldn’t do anything,” Loggans said. “And they want to carve out a mechanism whereby if abusive behavior is taking place they can take action.”
