@SteveWarneMedia Wonderfully put, but it’s not what we think that matters. It’s what the NHL thinks, and they are reticent to share that with us.

The 2018 Canadian World Junior players were found not guilty on all charges. But over a month later, the NHL continues to keep them ineligible, and by doing so, their punishment continues.
A lot of people say that's the right thing – that the players' choices and behaviour were immoral by most of society's standards, and so they still deserve some level of punishment for that.
That's completely fair. But what is the appropriate punishment for this particular violation of the NHL's morality standards? When considering the answer, it's important not to overlook what's already happened – their 'time served,' if you will.
They've already been banned from the NHL for a long time, 19 months and counting. Their last NHL games were in January of 2024, and even if they're reinstated, they might never play in the league again. There's a good chance that no team will bother taking on the distraction and negative attention.
Now let's talk about the social price: The players' personal reputations have been obliterated... forever. The judge fully cleared them of all charges, but for a good chunk of the Canadian public, they were tried and convicted a long time ago.
These are heavy, heavy prices that have been paid, but the NHL isn't yet satisfied.
What do you guys think? Where do you fall on the spectrum between reinstating the players today and banning them for life?

@CarloColaiacovo Had it been the 1-8 format; TOR-FLA would’ve been the ECF

@SunwingVacayy I already follow. Check your files. Will you escalate, have someone in a position of authority call, or? Public response pls.

@SunwingVacay Been there done that and nothing came of it. 5-mths told to be patient, then short response with limited info and no ownership of issues. Not helpful.

@SunwingVacay @CTA_gc @SunwingVacay @CTA_gc does losing 1/7 days vacation not merit at least partial refund? Shut down, ignored, shameful.

@SunwingVacay @CTA_gc Fact 5 @SunwingVacay @CTA_gc : no explanation ever provided. Unresponsive. No empathy. Awful service. Asked to speak to mgt but no # given or call received.

@TSNSimmer We have overvalued our own for so long when in fact we haven't had an asset anyone wanted until recently. You have to give up something to get something. Do you agree @TSNSimmer, or are you just tossing it out there?

I didn’t say all that. I just don’t think him posting the documentary is worthy of a suspension.

@Bease11 It’s cool, Cole just stands with his fellow Black Israelites as one of the true original Jews. I mean that or he’s just a huge anti-Semite but let’s not jump to any conclusions

@rwesthead A rather leading statement. Trust you are aware there's more to come. But I really hope you're wrong.
