- "Former trainer-turned-operations director Rick Bancroft bullied and harassed former secretary Lora Durkee, nutritionist Caroline Mandel, and communications director Kristy McNeil. Bancroft officially retired this spring. [...] In other words, Pearson was well aware of the abuse, or should have been, and did nothing."
- "Apparently, when [Strauss] Mann and fellow seniors-to-be tried to bring their concerns about team culture to Pearson in 2021, Mann felt sufficiently worried about Pearson bad-mouthing him to NHL teams that he saw fit to forego his senior year to play professional hockey in Sweden."
