This is the best summary I could come up with:
Four NHL players face sexual assault charges related to an alleged group incident in 2018 in London, Ont., when they were members of Canada's World Junior hockey team.
Lawyers for Michael McLeod and Cal Foote of the New Jersey Devils, Dillon Dubé of the Calgary Flames and Carter Hart of the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday confirmed the charges.
They come two days after 24-year-old Alex Formenton, another member of the 2018 junior team and a former NHL player, showed up at London Police Service headquarters and was charged with sexual assault.
Dubé's lawyers, Louis Strezos and Kaleigh Davidson, said the native of Golden, B.C., will "plead not guilty and maintains his innocence.
Foote's lawyer, Julianna Greenspan, said in a statement to CBC News: "Cal is innocent of the charge and will defend himself against this allegation to clear his name.
Court documents from 2022 revealed London police believed they had reasonable grounds to accuse five players of sexually assaulting a young woman in a hotel room.
