In a recent interview, newly appointed General Manager of the Philadelphia Flyers, Danny Briere, shared his thoughts on the ongoing Hockey Canada investigation. Briere expressed the Flyers' sincere efforts to gather information regarding the investigation but noted that they have faced a frustrating lack of responses.
This inquiry holds particular significance for the Flyers as one of their own, Carter Hart, was a member of the 2018 World Junior Team under scrutiny. The team is eager to learn of any potential implications stemming from the investigation, preferring clarity sooner rather than later.
At present, the timetable for the release of the investigation's findings remains a mystery. Speculation has swirled that the reports might surface before the upcoming season kicks off, allowing teams to plan accordingly. However, with training camp looming just days away, the feasibility of this timeline appears increasingly unlikely.
As the NHL clubs brace themselves for the approaching season, they must grapple with the unsettling prospect of not knowing the fate of their players who participated in the 2018 World Junior tournament. When the identities of those involved are eventually unveiled, the next chapter will revolve around the measures taken to address any misconduct.
