it’s basically a paid vacation. missing a few hockey games isn’t the end of the world
I think it opens the door to worse scenarios. If you treat this accusation like he’s potentially guilty and suspend him, you have to do the same in all cases

It's a bit concerning if someone did it to a star player in the middle of a playoff series though.
If whoever is behind this really didn't want him to get away with it and play any more they probably should've posted that the moment he became a free agent. Then maybe nobody would've signed him in the first place.
You don't let a guilty man play. Not that Cole was. It looks like there's not enough to go on. With that said, you simply make sure he's compensated for the headache and the world will all move on.
I agree it's a shitty move but it's nothing compared to men who actually do what he was accused of
How do you know that the person that wrote the tweet is a female?I wanted answers too. The good news is, whoever she is, she still has time to come forward to the NHL. But you're right, they can't wait forever. But I'm sure if she finds a way to the front offices of the NHL, they'll absolutely hear everything again and follow up.
I don't want to see this just disappear either. Whoever this person is I hope they follow up
Cole knows.he could be guilty he could not be who knows. the amount of men that are walking free in this world after comitting sexual crimes is huge. nothing much the team can do about it though if the accuser doesn’t want to take it further.
i doubt cole gives a shit about missing 3 games of hockey. and he isn’t so famous that this will affect his life in any real way. at most he’ll see some mean comments on twitter.
I’d be more inclined to agree with this if there was an actual verifiable person behind the accusation. At the very least a police report or something that would lead us to believe that this person is real. Hell, people are saying”she”. For all we know this could have come from some guy who’s got mental issues.he could be guilty he could not be who knows.

You don't know if the letter was written by a male or a female."Bring other girls which I was not okay with" "bragged about other girls" "misogynistic comments" etc in the linked tweet from someone named Emily Smith. It goes on... if it's a male, he's going waaaaayyyyy out of his way to purposely identity as female for whatever reason they have be it gender identity, anonymity etc.
You'll have to forgive me but after reading the tweet, the "they/them" only further degrades and dehumanizes the potential victim in my mind. Had it been a more general statement without so many allusions to being female , I wouldn't have ruled it out being a male.
''Do we know whether law enforcement is even involved?'' Exactly.Innocent until proven guilty. Do we know whether law enforcement is even involved?
they mean how do you know its a girl making a serious accusation and not a 60 year old male troll just trying to see if they can do a swatting technique to get a player suspended. There is no evidence that this person even exists."Bring other girls which I was not okay with" "bragged about other girls" "misogynistic comments" etc in the linked tweet from someone named Emily Smith. It goes on... if it's a male, he's going waaaaayyyyy out of his way to purposely identity as female for whatever reason they have be it gender identity, anonymity etc.
