In the last week, a major development emerged concerning the 2018 WJC Team Canada Junior scandal. Indeed, five players reported to the London Police to face charges: Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube, Michael McLeod and Cal Foote.
New informations suggest that more players could be asked to turn themselves in.
Three More Players to Face Charges for the 2018 WJC Team Canada Junior Scandal?
When the lawsuit was filed, back in the Spring of 2022, eight players were targeted by the alleged victim.
With only five currently facing charges, we're left wondering if three more will be arrested.
"In the lawsuit she filed in the spring of 2022, the alleged victim targeted Hockey Canada, all three Canadian major junior leagues and eight players who had only been identified by the pseudonyms John Doe and their year of birth.
Were the three unaccused players spared for lack of evidence or lack of direct participation? Did they try to intervene to stop the alleged attack? If they were indeed present, will some of them be called to testify, by the defense or the prosecutors, to explain what they witness?" - Martin Leclerc (translated from french)

It is expected that other players will be asked to testify in what promises to be a shocking trial.
The London Police is expected to provide more details on the case Monday during a press conference.
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman will also give details later today, as he speaks to the media ahead of the All-Star Skills Competition.
