The Hockey Canada trial elevated questions about consent, amateur hockey culture in Canada and the way police investigate sexual-assault cases.
The verdict marks the end of the highly-publicised case, in which the men were accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2018.
Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Cal Foote, Dillon Dubé and Michael McLeod were found not guilty of sexual assault in a verdict shared by Superior Court Justice Maria Carroccia on Thursday in London, Ontario, according to The Athletic's Sean Gentille and Hailey Salvian.
