The NHLPA is opening an independent investigation into their handling of the Beach case.

I'm not sure what their full involvement was, but it sounds like they also dropped the ball. Friedman/Marek had a podcast over the weekend and said that Beach's agent reported the abuse to officials at the NHLPA. It sounds like Fehr was in the loop and sent a NHLPA doctor to speak with Beach. Then it gets murky and there are doctor/patient privilidge issues and it they didn't seem to know what happened after Beach and the doctor met, and who knew what. and when.
