TL;DR Summary

Five players from Canada's 2018 world junior ice hockey team, including NHL players Michael McLeod, Cal Foote, Carter Hart, and Dillon Dubé, have taken indefinite leaves of absence from their current teams amid a report of a sexual assault investigation connected to the 2018 team. The investigation involves allegations of sexual abuse and assault against a 20-year-old Ontario native, with no charges filed yet. The players have been asked to surrender to Ontario police, but it's unclear if the five on leave are the ones involved. The 2022 probe focuses on an alleged incident in 2018, and the woman involved dropped a lawsuit after reaching a settlement with the defendants.
