A bit more on what court heard before the break.
Later in the day, on June 26, Hockey Canada sent an email to the players about an investigation.
In the group chat, the players talk about how it’s “just Hockey Canada” investigating, not police.
“It’s private and no police are involved so we are all perfectly fine,” Cal Foote wrote in the chat.
On June 27, the men discuss Bullock (the Hockey Canada executive) calling each of them, as well as what he asked and what they should say.
“What do I tell him,” Carter asks in the group chat.
“He won’t ask you anything about what happen (sic),” Comtois replies.
There’s some discussion about Hockey Canada wanting to do interviews in person, and many of the men don’t want that.
“That’s ridiculous … Like this is nothing and we can’t be making this big of deal out of it,” Bean writes.
They discuss getting lawyers.
“If we just called bullock and tell him everything this probably doesn’t have to happen,” Howden tells the group.
“We didn’t rape anyone,” Comtois says.
“Everyone stop talking in here. And talk to your agents about this,” Bean advises.
