From the looks of it, Mailloux le voyou is way worse.

If you think this kid is the first, or only to take a picture of a sexual act your are part of the problem. This happens all the time, he just got caught.

By no means should this define his person or career. It’s an everyday occurrence which has to be combated outside the rink.

Habs got the best player available, Let the kid play!

considering all the attention on Bergevin regarding his time with the hawks he wanted the safe pick. As in the team was not gonna be able to trash talk the new kid with homophobic slurs. Meanwhile he gets to project his own regret in complicity with the PR statement about the picks personal journey towards maturity, something Marc could and should probably engage in for himself.

The only outrage I see is Bergevin being a liar with the Chicago stuff.
- Not_Yan


After all that stuff came out Thursday about how widespread the knowledge in Chicago might have been… generally crickets from the Montréal and Canadian hockey media.

With this they’re acting like it’s the biggest scandal in hockey history.

Congrats to the Blackhawks for showing what a classy organization can do

I'm sure it's already been said in this thread, but seriously? Karine, have you been following the news at all?

You definitely aren't being picky.

This pick is what the Habs system needs, he won't play for a couple years at least, and is a very solid pick as far as his talent goes. In the end, the business side decided it could easily weather the storm, and so the pick was made.

Craig Button talk about the victim, my question is who made the 1st move? Scandinavian girls are much more open when it comes to sex. Not saying sharing pictures are right it’s definitely not but what are the details

It’s a bizarre pick, I won’t argue that. And this kid sounds like a total wiener.

But the media and fan reaction to this has been an utter embarrassment, just everyone trying to out-rage each other on Twitter and acting like the Habs just drafted John Wayne Gacy. That sanctimony makes me want to puke.

And yes I have a daughter and yes I would want to kill the guy but I’m also mentally stable enough to understand that the guy’s life wouldn’t be ruined for eternity because of this.

- DoubleDown


The fake manufactured rage over this is embarrassing.

I have a daughter too and if you were to tell me the worse thing to happen to her in her entire life was this, I could live with it. I wouldn't be happy but I could live with it. And no I wouldn't try and prevent the person from earning a living.

Meanwhile the entire Kardashian family empire was built on a chick injecting fat into her ass to the point of deforming her body and a leaked sex tape.

- habs88888


who cares who made the first move? it was consensual. he made a mistake, a big one. paid for it, and will continue to pay for it. no reason to hang him.
controversial pick by MB, didn't need all the trouble for a 2nd round pick. they went there anyway, but that is not on the kid.

The pick from a hockey wise perspective is great. Button had to be political I think given his role on TSN. Mistake is made, it is likely not as big as some people think it is really but he needs to grow from it

sharing nudes without consent, drawing on a wall with a sharpie and starting a food fight in the cafeteria all childish mistakes that can be resolved with an apology

nobody he says he can't make a living. but how many jobs would he be restricted from with this conviction on his record?

also people have committed suicide when people leaked their nudes without consent, but you're okay with it.

I think calling the Blackhawks franchise classy with the dirty laundry currently being aired in Chicago is a stretch. A big one.

Karine,

Logan Mailloux was a 17 year old who is a talented defenseman yet exercised bad judgment on one occasion.

Bravo to Marc Bergevin for being bold, recognizing talent and believing in forgiveness.

Shame on you, Eric Engels, the folks at Eye on the Prize and all the other nonsense media outlets for focusing on one bad moment and not seeing the big picture.


P.S. I will gladly share pictures and video of Mailloux destroying the Leafs, Bruins and whoever else in the future.
