The OHL is investigating the Sudbury Wolves for setting a bounty on a player, which is where top San Jose Sharks prospect Quentin Musty plays.

Musty was not named in the initial report of the investigation, but it certainly is a concern that his team is connected to something like this. 

"During a Sudbury-Barrie game on Jan. 18, Colts defenceman Kashawn Aitcheson delivered a hard, but legal, hit to Wolves forward Nathan Villeneuve. There was no penalty on the play. Aitcheson then fought one of Villeneuve's teammates, Nolan Collins," Sportsnet's Jeff Marek reports. "The two teams played again three days later, but Barrie did not dress Aitcheson. According to sources, word reached the Colts about the possibility of a bounty being placed on Aitcheson, so the organization made a decision not to play him."

The OHL confirmed to Marek that they are investigating the alleged bounty. 

When asked to comment, the Barrie Colts referred back to the league, and the Wolves declined.
