NHLPA announces it will launch independent review of its response to Kyle Beach’s allegations of sexual assault
The NHL Players’ Association says it will commission an independent review of the union’s response to sexual-assault allegations made by Chicago Blackhawks draft pick Kyle Beach against a former assistant coach.
The report, which came in response to lawsuits by Beach and a former high-school student Aldrich was convicted of assaulting in Michigan after leaving the Blackhawks, also revealed Fehr was contacted twice about allegations connected to Chicago’s former video coach, including by a Beach confidant.“Kyle Beach has been through a horrific experience and has shown true courage in telling his story,” Fehr said in a statement after the release of the report.
The report has shaken the hockey world, and players across the NHL want answers about what transpired from a union perspective. Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman, top executive Al MacIsaac and Florida Panthers coach Joel Quenneville, who was behind Chicago’s bench at the time, all resigned last week.
