OHL suspends Canadiens first-round pick Logan Mailloux indefinitely for conduct violations

The Ontario Hockey League announced on Thursday that Montreal Canadiens first-round draft pick Logan Mailloux has been suspended indefinitely.

Before being selected 31st overall in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, Mailloux was playing in Sweden for SK Lejon while the OHL 2020-21 season was cancelled. During his time overseas, the then 17-year-old was charged with defamation and criminal photography after taking a photo of a woman during a consensual sexual encounter. That photo, along with the victim’s online profile, was sent to his teammates without the victim's consent.

Mailloux was handed a fine of approximately $2,100.
