Former Winnipeg hockey coach sentenced to 6 years for sex assault of player
- On Monday, May 11, 2026, a Winnipeg court sentenced former hockey coach Madison Biluk to six years in prison for sexually assaulting a teenage player, taking her into custody immediately.
- Provincial court Judge Jerilee Ryle found Biluk groomed the victim between 2019 and 2021 by blurring professional boundaries and exploiting knowledge of the girl's past trauma and mental health.
- In a victim impact statement, the player described a "severe" emotional toll, while the judge noted the offending "persisted for 16 months and was carried out through secrecy, deception and repeated violations."
- Because Manitoba lacks federal institutions for women, Ryle ordered Biluk to serve her sentence outside the province, while also prohibiting her from contacting the victim or using Snapchat.
- Assessed as a moderate to moderate-high risk to reoffend, Biluk must participate in federal support programs, with the court expressing hope she will develop accountability and avoid repeating her behaviour.
