It was announced today that former Ottawa Senators forward Alex Formenton has turned himself in to London Police for his involvement in the scandal.

Formenton was granted leave by his NLA team Ambri-Piotta last week, and left the NHL two years ago likely due to the scandal.

Four other players have taken leave from their teams, notably Dillon Dubé, who captained the team.

Formenton's lawyers released this statement:

«The London Police have charged several players, including Alex Formenton, in connection with an accusation made in 2018. Alex will vigorously defend his innocence and asks that people not rush to judgment without hearing all of the evidence,»
