BRAYDEN PENNERPRINCE GEORGE SPRUCE KINGS
The inquiry was prompted by complaints about Dempsey’s coaching methods brought to the club’s attention by former Kings captains Brayden Penner and Ryan deVries, so far the only players confirmed to have come forward with their concerns.
“I think it’s still just the two, but there have been a couple parents (of players) who have contacted the club,” said Kings secretary Kurtis Taylor. “Other than that, nothing has really changed.
“Nothing has come to a head yet. It’s early yet, but we’re hoping to sometime, maybe on Saturday, sit down and have a conference call with some of the players who have contacted the club.”
Taylor said Kings president Darcy Buryn and team director Craig McPherson were out of town and have been unavailable to the B.C. Hockey League team since the club announced it would be investigating Dempsey as a result of an emergency team meeting a week ago.
“We are going to have the investigation, it’s just a matter of getting everybody’s ducks in a row,” Taylor said. “Any time something like this comes to our attention, we have to do something about it.”
