Five Team Canada Players From 2018 Requested To Turn Themselves Into Police

Carter Hart And Dillon Dube Taking Personal Leave Days Before This Sparks Speculation
Carter Hart and Dillon Dube, both teammates on Canada's junior hockey team in 2018, have taken leaves from their respective NHL teams. While it might be coincidental and unrelated, there's speculation that a ruling on the scandal may be imminent.
The 25-year-old Carter Hart has secured 12 wins in 26 starts this season, maintaining a 2.80 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage.
This season was pivotal for Carter Hart, the goaltender from Sherwood Park, Alberta. With high expectations and his contract expiring in 2024, it was a crucial moment for him to solidify his status among the league's top goaltenders. Teams depend on goalies for stability, and Hart was expected to evolve into a dependable force.
As for Dube, the Flames state that Dillon Dube is currently receiving care from health professionals, and they emphasize the importance of respecting his privacy.
The 25-year-old forward has tallied only three goals and seven points in 43 games this season. He faced a healthy scratch on January 9 and has been skating in the bottom six, experiencing a drop in his average ice time.
Last season, Dube achieved a career-high of 45 points in 82 games with an average ice time of 15:10.
While we sincerely hope everything is well with their families, the timing of their departures is quite unusual, especially given the ongoing investigation. It's certainly a situation worth keeping an eye on.
It appears that the results of the investigation could be on the verge of being made public.
