The 2018 Team Canada roster has come under scrutiny since allegations of mass sexual assault surfaced. All members of the team have been under suspicion as to their possible involvement. While most players have spoken out, there are still a few who have not released statements, which is of course their right.

Victor Mete, however, has repeatedly shared that he was not involved in the story at all and was not even present at the event. This Wednesday, Mete took his stance even further by sharing the following:

"Earlier today, I was voluntarily interviewed by Hockey Canada investigators looking into 2018 sexual assault allegations that have dominated the news recently.

Notwithstanding the fact that I was out of the country on vacation when the incident under investigation occurred, I have answered all of Hockey Canada's questions and fully intend to continue to cooperate with the police, Hockey Canada and the NHL in their attempts to uncover the truth of this matter.

I have also informed Hockey Canada that they can share a copy of my interview with the police and the NHL to help further these investigations." - Victor Mete

Hockey Canada has already made it clear that they intend to ban anyone who refuses to cooperate with their investigation. They will no longer be allowed to attend events involving Hockey Canada. While lack of cooperation does not immediately infer guilt, it is clear that Team Canada intends to try to force the player's hand.
