Names are out now- 5 players on indefinite leave

TreKronor

This is going to be interesting.  If these players are found guilty, will they be doing jail time?  Are the clubs going to terminate contracts because of this?  I can't think of such a broad-reaching situation in the past, with so many names involved.

Steeb

I don't see how they don't do jail time. IF they're guilty, I hope they do a long stretch and lose their contracts.

If they did the crime then they have to do the time.....
