The agent said his client was invited by another player to come to a room in the Delta London Armouries Hotel early in the morning of June 19, 2018.
«My guy got a text message from one of his teammates that there was a party going on with pizza, so he went up to the room,» the agent said. «He did not know how to process what was going on when he saw what was happening in the room. He did not know if this was consensual group sex or if it was a sexual assault.
«It's true that he did not intervene and say stop. You can judge him for not intervening. What would you do in the same situation when you were a teenager? Is this something he should lose his career and reputation over?»
The agent, who requested anonymity to protect the identity of his client, said the player left the room after about 10 minutes.
The player was interviewed by London police in late 2018 after a woman alleged she was sexually assaulted on June 19, 2018, in a hotel room by eight hockey players - at least some of whom were members of Canada's 2018 World Juniors team. While London police closed the case without filing charges in February 2019, they have since reopened the investigation.
The agent said London detectives are now making plans for in-person interviews with players who were in the city for the Hockey Canada Foundation event that took place the evening before the alleged assault.
«My guy has already spoken with police [in 2018] and he was completely honest with them, and he will be honest when police speak with him again,» the agent said. «My understanding is that police will be travelling to do interviews with players in person over the next few weeks.»
Neither the woman in the case nor the players allegedly involved have been publicly identified.
A London police spokesperson refused to answer specific questions about the investigation.
«As this is an active criminal investigation, we are unable to speak further to the matter,» the spokesperson wrote in an email to TSN on Monday. «Appropriate information will be shared once the investigation has concluded.»
The sexual assault allegations have cast a cloud over Hockey Canada in recent months and raised questions about the organization's governance.
After TSN reported in May that Hockey Canada had settled a lawsuit filed by the woman weeks earlier, a parliamentary committee began investigating the organization's response to the allegation.
