🏒🥅 🇨🇦 “The Canadiens announced several player cuts Sunday ahead of their NHL season opener Tuesday in Toronto against the Maple Leafs... Forward Florian Xhekaj wasn’t among them and will be on the Canadiens’ season-opening roster, joining his brother, Arber. …Adam Engstrom also wasn’t among Sunday’s cuts and will be the Canadiens’ seventh defenceman to start the season, beating out David Reinbacher for the job while Kaiden Guhle continues to recover from adductor muscle surgery.” #Habs #hnom #nhl #hockey #Canadiens #montreal @hnom@fedigroups.social

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social At least their university didn't reward them for their assault. In Canada two of the five hockey players charged with sexually assaulting a young woman, but not convicted, have been awarded contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to play in the NHL. I can only interpret this as sexual assault is so common in the hockey community that they didn't stand out. As an aside, Hockey Canada used a slush fund to purchase the silence of women over the years who have been sexually assaulted. #sexualassault #hockey
