5 players acquitted of sexual assault discussed at NHL camps

While five members of Canada's 2018 world junior team acquitted of sexual assault are not yet allowed to sign or play in the NHL, their futures are a topic of conversation as training camps open around the league.

Carter Hart, Michael McLeod, Dillon Dube, Cal Foote and Alex Formenton are eligible to sign Oct. 15 and play Dec. 1 as part of their reinstatement process. A judge in London, Ontario, in a ruling handed down in late July acquitted them of charges stemming from an incident there seven years earlier.
