Gary Bettman Gets Called Out Regarding Sexual Assault Investigation
Tampa Bay Lightning defensemen Ian Cole, who has won a Stanley Cup with the Pittsburgh Penguins years ago has been accused of sexual assaulting a minor, and grooming the individual for a long period of time.
The statement released can be viewed below, it contains sexual assault information which may be triggering to some.
The NHL has proceeded to take action, and the Tampa Bay Lightning have suspended Ian Cole until further notice.
But what else is the NHL actually doing!? Bettman was present at the LA Kings home opener, and got called out on the spot in regards to the investigation.
�'Commissioner Bettman is at the Kings' opener. I asked him what the NHL is doing regarding the
anonymous sexual assault allegation against Tampa Bay's lan Cole:
"We're investigating that as well.
We're trying to get to the source of the tweet and we are investigating.
(more)''
More Bettman: "Obviously the allegations on twitter are disturbing but I think we need to take the appropriate time to understand exactly what happened." Also said the NHL is conducting its own investigation into allegations of sexual assault (more) against some members of the 2018
Canadian world junior team. "| understand the London police are reviewing but as it relates to the NHL players who were on the 18 team we're going to satisfy ourselves and do whatever."
A odd response from the NHL's commissioner.
