A new report from TSN's Rick Westhead is expected to be released on Wednesday, which reveals that the OHL Commissioner, David Branch, has confirmed the league's employment of an investigator to probe allegations that certain hockey parents paid for their sons' selection in the 2022 OHL draft. As per the report, three GTHL coaches have stated that they possess evidence, including text messages, indicating that parents paid over $30,000 to guarantee their sons' selection.

Nevertheless, Branch has not yet addressed queries related to the investigator's identity, the extent of the investigation, its duration, or the amount paid to the investigator by the OHL.

David Branch statement:
"Last year we conducted an independent third-party investigation into the allegations that you mention and could find no evidence of any team tampering with the draft nor teams acting in a manner prejudicial to the welfare of the League... I would ask that . the people you have spoken to, please provide it to the League and we will review it and determine if further investigation is required"
