Steve Futterman for CBC News, Oram, Utah. The NHL has announced that five former world junior hockey players acquitted on sexual assault charges can return to play in the league as of December 1st. In a statement, the NHL says the allegations were deeply troubling and unacceptable and the behavior falls woefully short of the league standards. Karen Pauls has the latest. Schooltender Carter Hart and his former World Junior teammates are one step closer to playing in the NHL. Hart, Michael McLeod, Alex Formanton, Dylan Dubay, and Cal Foote were acquitted of sexual assault charges in July,

clearing the way for their return. The NHL doesn't have a formal personal conduct policy like other professional sports do, which means the league and teams handle cases like this individually.
