The five players in question -- New Jersey Devils forward Michael McLeod and defenseman Cal Foote, Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart, Calgary Flames forward Dillon Dube and former Ottawa Senators forward Alex Formenton -- were part of Canada's gold medal-winning world junior championship team in 2018 that has been under investigation after a woman alleged she was sexually assaulted by eight members of the team in a civil lawsuit filed in 2022.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman told reporters on Friday the NHL had commissioned its own year-long investigation into the alleged incident that included interviewing every player from the 2018 team. Bettman said the league will not release its findings until after the London police's judicial process is finished.
