Three teenage boys were arrested Monday and will be charged with sex offences following allegations of hazing on a rural high school hockey team.

Two incidents of hazing, allegedly victimizing five teen boys who were rookies on the Prairie Mountain Mustangs, happened in November and January, Manitoba RCMP said Tuesday. The alleged victims were 15 and 16 years old.

The three boys arrested are all 17 years old. Two will be charged with sexual assault with a weapon, sexual assault and forcible confinement when they appear in court. The other will be charged with sexual assault and assault.

The three suspects were released ahead of a court appearance scheduled in Winnipeg on June 10.

Okay, everyone who actually cares about what's going on and hasn't listened to it yet need to put this on your playlist instead of that next musician or audio book.

Even if it's shown to be a one-sided exaggeration, there can be no denying that there are deep, systemic problems with hockey culture and inside hockey organizations.

Was it the many MANY rapes? It couldn't have been all the covered up rapes.
