RedRooster Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) At the risk of sounding like a know-all - contempt of court is a real thing and for that reason, it really is a bad idea for anyone to discuss or speculate on a live case. Edited November 15, 2023 by RedRooster

By examining all of the evidence, which will consist of more than a video clip on twitter.

Absolutely, but I think this being a private forum and no-one actually speculating on any details, because we know fuck all anyway, probably means we won't get a knock on the door this time. Oh, and this isn't a court case yet, the fella hasn't been charged with any crime. Edited November 15, 2023 by tiger_rick

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted November 15, 2023 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2023 I have a friend who plays ice hockey to a decent level and he is absolutely adamant there is no case to answer and that it was entirely accidental and his word is more than good enough for me.

My mate is mad into his hockey and has followed the Panthers around the country for years (and was at the game when this happened). He says the same, no way was this anything other than a horrific accident.
