The National Hockey League’s Boston Bruins have hired a law firm to review their player-vetting process in the wake of intense backlash after signing hockey prospect Mitchell Miller. Former Attorney General and NAFUSA member Loretta Lynch, a partner at Paul, Weiss, will lead a team of lawyers from that firm conducting an independent review of how the Bruins vet players. A spokesperson for the team said the Bruins willfully cooperate with the review and will publicly disclose the results.

Ms. Lynch was the 83rd Attorney General of the United States serving from 2015 to 2017. She also served as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York 1999-2002 and 2010-2015.
