But this is crazy. Apparently Jake, fresh off getting acquitted on sexual assault charges, earned the disfavor of his teammates on EHC Visp in the Swiss league to such an extent that he got into a physical altercation with one of them, who promptly went to management and said it was him or them (the rest of the team).
