dan carcillo is a good egg

(strong cw for hazing and abuse in that article)

the worst part about having very specific niche interests is trying to track down a paper that doesn’t appear to be available anywhere online and the most of a trace you can find of it is mentioned in a phd thesis from 1999 or in the author’s cv where it’s like presented before the international sociology of sport association proceedings, oslo, norway :)

May the lord never have mercy on the bastards in the CHL who could’ve helped end the abuse but didn’t and even partook in it. Those poor babies, literal children that were tortured by authority figures and older players that were supposed to teach them and cultivate them into talented young men. They uprooted their entire lives, as minors, away from their mothers and fathers and siblings and friends to chase after their lifelong dreams only to be shit on in every literal sense of the word. God.

Is there anything I should do? Or even, is there anything we CAN do as fans? I feel disgusting just reading all about it and then sitting back and letting it play out. Bless Carcillo and Taylor and all the others victimized by hockey culture.

Daniel Carcillo and Garrett Taylor file a class-action lawsuit against the Canadian Hockey League and others. Class-action status to be confirmed.

Absolutely physically disgusted at the people throwing nasty comments back at Daniel Carcillo and using the 'type of player' he was a method of belittling or discrediting the allegations in that lawsuit

No actions of a single player during their career excuses the existence of that kind of systematic abuse within the CHL, or any environment. And what motivation would he possibly have for fabricating any of it?

I can only hope that no matter the outcome of the lawsuit, some positive change and awareness comes from it for the future hockey generations

PSA: Paul Bissonette is a complete asshole

Here’s everything y’all need to know about a fight he just started with Dan Carcillo on Twitter.

You can say of Carcillo what you want, but at least he acknowledges that he was a racist, homophobic, sexist asshole and constantly tries to make amends and better himself. He’s also a dude who holds other men accountable for their actions and for that alone I salute the guy. 

But since Bissonette has just been named “the most influential person in hockey” and so many people still think his antics are fucking hilarious, this will probably be an overall horrible experience for Carcillo, who right now has thousands of Bissonette’s followers threatening him online. 

God I hate hockey sometimes.

daniel carcillo is the coolest retired nhler ever

[straprights]

what was it like getting noticed by daniel carillo on twitter

incredible. what an incredible guy. instead of letting the culture shape him, he chose to acknowledge his own mistakes and call out the coaches and staff who’d mistreated him, physically, emotionally, for years. if you’re not familiar with daniel carcillo’s fight against abuse in hockey, from juniors to the nhl, please give his twitter a scroll. i project affection on idealized versions of hockey players, but carcillo inspires me real respect. it’s scary, to take on the pillars of a sport like that. hockey’s built on racism, sexism and a lot of abuse. there’s very powerful men who’d like to keep that quiet. even if he’s retired, he’s a stanley cup champ with a big platform, and he made the choice to take a stand. hope my dumbass normie meme made him laugh. he deserves to
