The thing about preemptive is you don't know if they'll ever be charged

They knew they were suspects and chose to sign them.

If a team knew they were suspects in an armed robbery or a murder, you think it's OK to sign them too, just because they have not been officially changed?

But hey, it is the NHL, so I would not be surprised if a team actually did sign them.

What's amusing is you're 3 posts away from wanting the league to fold because they didn't suspend them back in 2018

Nothing they did, or have been accused of doing, is amusing

No, I am saying those team should not get cap relief.

That is all.

You can be accused of a lot, the teams seemed to have done the work based on the info available at the time.

You have no idea what they knew or not, but I know you dont care about that either

the teams did what was in their own best interest, at the time.

Teams tend to do that. I'll assume, much like you have been doing, if the teams had enough credible information at the time they would not have signed those players.

The NHL knew who was at risk, the NHL surely shared that information with the team.

Teams decided to act in their own self interest.

As such, why should they get cap relief?

If EK can have 32 inside team sources...

Team knew players from that team were in trouble, any level of due diligence would have revealed who was at risk.

So either team chose to ignore the risk or chose not to look into it.

Still don't think they deserve cap relief, which is my original point.

Which is fine, but it then implies the teams knew much more than what is let on, which i'd like proof of. Team Canada didn't disclose much, the police did a poor investigation and the plauers were hiding the facts. 3 major factors which limit the access of info

Whatever.

They knew there was a risk w/ anyone on that team. Everyone knew there was, not only NHL teams. They signed those players, knowing problems could arise down the line.

Either they chose to be ignorant or act in their own self interest.

All I am saying is they do not deserve cap relief.

That simple.
