"Sex Assault Inquiry: NHL Players and Junior Hockey Stars Face Police Surrender"
Two members of the 2018 Canadian world junior hockey team, including two Devils players, are facing charges of sexual assault following an alleged incident after a Hockey Canada fundraising gala in June 2018. The accused players, who have not been named, have been granted indefinite leaves from their pro teams, and the London police plan to hold a press conference to share further details. The case gained national attention after a woman filed a lawsuit against Hockey Canada, the Canadian Hockey League, and eight unnamed players, alleging that she was subjected to sexual assault by members of the team.
