From Rick Westhead of the Toronto Star,
Embattled NHL Players’ Association executive director Ted Saskin has been suspended with pay, after a unanimous vote by the union’s team player representatives.
A majority of the NHLPA’s 30 team player reps late last night participated in an emergency conference call with union staff to discuss allegations first reported by the Star that Saskin inappropriately accessed the private email accounts of players who have opposed his hiring.
Saskin did not participate in the nearly two-hour conference call.

You can stick a fork in him. The players have hired a lawyer to fire him in the most apprpriate and least expensive way. Those guys are smarter than you think. Once again, congratulations to Chris Chelios, for having the balls to fight the good fight.

Good for the PA, and good on ‘em to do this the right way. He needs to be shown the door in a fair and equitable manner, per union rules and bylaws, so that he fairly and honestly pays for falling back upon “past practice.”
