Already appears to be some discrepancies between what #NHLBruins have said regarding Mitchell Miller.
1. Team referred to it as a singular "incident," yet victim's mother says this was "years" of trauma.
2. Joni Meyer-Crothers does not say Miller apologized https://t.co/YCkXG2JOBW— Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) November 4, 2022
Sweeney on signing Mitchell Miller: "I am not going to downplay that this has been a personal struggle as well as a professional struggle."
They did not reach out to victim's family during vetting process.
