The Swift Current Broncos announced on Monday that they have released longtime Head Athletic Trainer and Equipment Manager, Jamie ‘Butter’ LeBlanc effective immediately.
The Broncos cited ‘a recent pattern of demeaning and derogatory comments, threatening behavior and unprofessional conduct that is inconsistent with the values of the Swift Current Broncos organization and the Western Hockey League,’ as cause for the release.
The Broncos also said that the organization will provide no further comment on the matter. They hope to announce a new trainer and equipment manager in the coming days.
