An Ontario girls hockey coach who was recently handed a permanent suspension for verbal abuse and inciting violence is still on the ice with his teenage players, skirting a ban that Hockey Canada admits it is powerless to enforce. 

On March 6, the Ontario Women’s Hockey Association (OWHA) suspended Jenya Feldman for a minimum of 15 years, after determining that he harassed and bullied his players during a heated December 2020 team meeting.
