NHL Will Interview Every Player on Hockey Canada's 2018 World Junior Team

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly were available for questions following the annual State of the League address prior to the start of the Stanley Cup Final.

One of the topics brought up for discussion was the lawsuit settlement with Hockey Canada in which an anonymous woman alleged sexual assault by members of the Canadian 2018 World Juniors team.

Daly commented that he expect to interview all players from that team in the course of the NHL's investigation into the matter. Furthermore, Bettman said he expects the league to release its findings in the matter upon the conclusion of the investigation.

The NHL's investigation continues with the input of the NHLPA and in the midst of a Canadian investigation into the matter. Full details into the government investigation can be found on Rick Westhead's Twitter account.
