Americas2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported57m ago
An independent appeal board has upheld the suspensions of four players from Canada’s 2018 world junior hockey team following a review of their conduct. The board determined that five players involved in the case breached Hockey Canada’s code of conduct. While the suspensions for four individuals remain in effect, the board ruled to lift the suspension of one player immediately.
The decision follows the players' acquittal on sexual assault charges last year. Hockey Canada has officially accepted the board’s recommendations regarding the continued suspensions, marking a significant development in the organization's ongoing disciplinary process related to the 2018 squad.
