When Kyle Beach finally came to a settlement with the Chicago Blackhawks it wasn't the end of his horrible abuse case. In many ways it was just the beginning, the beginning of his healing and the beginning of the investigation into all of those who wronged Beach along the way. The list of people responsible for the abuse was far reaching, beyond the Blackhawks and even had an impact on the NHLPA.
The NHLPA approved an investigation into Donald Fehr's involvement or lack thereof in the Kyle Beach case. Well the results of that investigation are finally in, having been conducted by Toronto law firm Cozen O'Connor. The NHLPA Player Representatives were given the investigations finding on Monday night before a conference call.
It was reported in 2011 that Donald Fehr was made aware of the Kyle Beach incident by Beach's agent, Ross Gurney. At the time it was reported Fehr ensured Gurney that he'd forward this information, something that never actually happened. After the findings were released Donald Fehr went on to admit he'd failed Kyle Beach.
