00:02 - How good is Carter Hart's lawyer?

00:07 - I am not counting on Carter Hart's lawyer

00:10 to be anything exceptional.

00:12 I gotta tell you right now,

00:13 the Flyers, I don't know if you saw,

00:15 they made him a non-rostered player today.

00:17 So they took him off the roster today.

00:19 So I would say that it's very safe to assume

00:22 that that is the end of his Flyers career.

00:24 Now he's gonna be a restricted free agent this summer.

00:27 But look, Keith Jones and Danny Breyer

00:29 are trying to build something new, fresh,

00:32 and trying to do a rebuild right.

00:34 And so to them, I would think it'd be very hard to,

00:37 even if he was ever found innocent,

00:39 and you would hope that they move on

00:44 because the bad press is just too much

00:46 for them to have to deal with.

00:48 - Do you believe the story of all these players,

00:52 what is it, eight of them,

00:53 that they were involved in this alleged rape?

00:57 Do you believe it?

00:57 What do you believe?

00:59 - I do believe that somebody wanted

01:01 to make this story go away,

01:04 and that there was some efforts to hide it from the public

01:09 and to keep it under wraps.

01:10 And whenever that happens, Scott,

01:12 I always assume that at the very least,

01:15 something really, really bad happened.

01:17 Whether each player is guilty or anything like that,

01:21 I'll let the courts decide that.

01:22 But whenever someone tries the big coverup,

01:24 whether it's the police,

01:26 whether it's Canadian Hockey Organization,

01:28 whatever it is with payoffs,

01:29 that tells me that something bad happened

01:33 that they did not want to have to deal with

01:35 in the court of public opinion.

01:36 - Is that not crazy that they have to go off

01:38 to Toronto tomorrow and have an All-Star weekend

01:41 with a gigantic rape hovering over the league?

01:44 - I think the timing of it is suspicious at best,

01:49 that they did it when it comes to All-Star weekend.

01:52 But to me, again, I want justice served one way or another.

01:56 Either these players get their justice

01:58 or the alleged victim gets her justice.

02:00 But whatever it is, I want answers.

02:02 And I think it's a scar on the game of hockey

02:05 that they're dealing with this right now.

02:09 And better to get this stuff out in the open

02:11 and get it cleaned up.
