For those keeping track: Victor Mete, Cale Makar, Jonah Gadjovich, Dante Fabbro, Connor Timmins, Cal Foote, Kale Clague, Carter Hart, Colton Point, Taylor Raddysh, Jake Bean, Jordan Kyrou & now Robert Thomas have each publicly denied any involvement and/or made statements on the matter. That leaves 9 members of the 2018 Canadian World Junior Championship roster who have yet to deny any involvement.

Thomas is simply the latest, but I doubt he will be the last. Players who have yet to speak out about the allegations are:

- Drake Batherson
- Tyler Steenbergen
- Max Comtois
- Michael McLeod
- Dillon Dubé
- Boris Katchouk
- Brett Howden
- Sam Steel
- Alex Formenton

With the NHL & the Canadian government both conducting their own investigations into the matter, it is only a matter of time before the identities of each player involved are made known. However, with the ongoing litigation, it is possible still that the defense can stave off any inquiries.
