On October 27, professional hockey player Kyle Beach identified himself as John Doe in the sexual assault case involving former Chicago Blackhawks video coach Brad Aldrich.

Since being brave enough to come forward with this brave story, the NHL and many individuals in it have taken some serious but well deserved heat, and some have even lost their jobs. As for Beach, he is continuing to go about his business, and his currently playing his second season with the Black Dragons Erfurt which is a team based in Germany. On Friday night, he suited up for his first game since his interview with TSN's Rick Westhead, and was able to score twice in an 8-2 win.

The big night gives Beach, a 2008 first round pick, four goals and nine points in eight games on the season. It is awesome to see the 31-year-old have success after the tragic situation he went through. Hopefully him coming forward has taken a major weight off of his shoulders, as he was not only brave enough to stand up for himself, but in the process has helped many others across the world who have found themselves in similar situations, and will go a long ways in preventing more things like this from occurring in the future.
