Brendan Leipsic was of course kicked out of the NHL for an incident he had in where he made misogynistic remarks made in a group chat via text message. His brother Jeremy was also removed from the University of Manitoba men's hockey team for the incident as well.
The Washington Capitals have placed forward Brendan Leipsic on unconditional waivers for the purpose of contract termination.
Jeremy Leipsic, Brendan Leipsic's brother, was in the group chat that was made public yesterday. He's now been released from the University of Manitoba men's hockey team.
