Corey Perry Scandal Forces Melanie Bedard to Make Statement Online

The Corey Perry scandal has been the hot topic in the hockey world for a week now.

Unfortunately, some disturbing and disgusting rumors have spread regarding the nature of Corey Perry's contract termination.

Some fans have propagated the false rumor that he had an affair with Connor Bedard's mom.

While the Blackhawks organization dismissed those rumors, it forced Bedard's mom, Melanie, to make a significant gesture.

After being harassed by many people online, Bedard had no choice but to take action.

Instead of going public and making statements, she simply decided to delete her social media accounts.

Things really blew out of proportion for something that has nothing to do with her.

We can't believe that an 18-year-old has to go through all of this because of a fan's bad joke...
