Grandmaster Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I think the thought that this is a money motivated proceeding doesn’t bear any weight. She got paid out millions by Hockey Canada when she sued them a while back. If this is a false claim, it would have to be another motive. She will have to testify. That’s not easy. I suppose we will see in the next couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmaster Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Whoever is responsible for the delay when this went for review, will come out later in court. They wont say who it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaster Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I wouldn’t be surprised if Adam Foote says he is done. Not easy for a dad to deal with and also be in the public eye at the same time. Hopefully he can continue with the team. He is a key part of our coaching staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the courts have to see it through but take a look at the fact pattern, the issues Hockey Canada has faced, the issues the police are dealing with for not reviewing etc. I am not going to pretend this is a he said she said situation which are much more confusing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foote won't step down. The Canucks have already shielded him from the media for good reason. Yes its disturbing when its your son and public but I am sure he knew before, when the rumours came out years ago. He would have said what happened and were you involved to his son....he's likely worked through the mental anguish of it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingo, while Foote is in the public eye while standing on the bench, he does not need to be put in front of reporters. The Canucks will not allow media to go near Adam. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it “quite obvious”? Just because someone gets charged, that doesn’t mean automatically that he did it. We have court for a reason. There is a LOT we don’t know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has nothing to do with “bro culture” or whatever you are trying to say. It’s about knowing more about what happened and having it shown in court.

You can pretend its not by using the usual, innocent until proven guilty and of course that is a legal standard. Sometimes you have to look at info that has already emerged, the fact 5 players left their teams and were arrested, the fact the entire hockey canada board stepped down, etc, and realize 2+2 does indeed equal 4. I am going to lean on the side of a young girl saying she was gang raped by 5 players, 8 in the room, players who have clearly already given evidence to cause the arrests, as a pretty big sign it happened. There's literally text messages from the one guy she agreed to go home with, saying "you wanted it right"....after they realized what they had done.

Others in the bar where they met her as well. Maybe even hotel staff and video. Let’s wait until ALL the facts and testimony come out before we reserve judgement.

Dude There's text messages from the one guy she agreed to go back with saying "you wanted it from all of us right"....after they realized they raped her they wanted her to say she was ok with it. There is testimony from other players saying at the bar, they tried to get a drunk girl to kiss a bunch of them and she did, then they said come back to the hotel with US...she said no because she got freaked out... This was predatory man 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
