Former NHL player accuses coach of sexual harassment

Canadian ice hockey player Kyle Beach has accused former video coach of the National Hockey League (NHL) “Chicago Blackhawks” Brad Aldrich of sexual harassment. His words are quoted by TSN.

The athlete said that in 2010, before the final series of the Stanley Cup, the coach turned on a pornographic video and masturbated in front of him without his consent. He tried to force Beach to engage in sexual contact with him by threats. “I know I’m not the only one. It destroyed me from the inside. And I want everyone to know that you are not alone, and if this happens, then we need to speak, ”the player said.

On October 26, NHL officials fined Chicago $ 2 million for not responding to what had happened. In addition, Stan Bowman has stepped down as the team’s general manager, which he has held since 2009. During his tenure, the club won the Stanley Cup three times.

Kyle Beach was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks in 2008. He hasn’t played a single game in the NHL. The 31-year-old defender is currently playing for the German team Erfurt Black Dragons.
