Reading A Confidential Report May Have Cost Kelly His Job

from Tim Wharnsby of the Globe and Mail,
Some details began to leak out yesterday, including charges that Kelly peeked at a confidential transcript from a private session at the NHLPA summer meetings in Las Vegas two months ago.
The players were burned by the previous executive director Ted Saskin, who was fired after allegations that he monitored players’ e-mails for personal gain. So after learning about Kelly’s actions, mixed in with other concerns, they felt they could no longer trust him after he read the minutes of the private session.
When an executive board member was contacted yesterday to confirm the private session was part of the reason for Kelly’s dismissal, the phone line went silent. He then said, “The players have agreed not to say anything.” The player was given a chance to refute the story and did not deny the allegations.

Wait, let me get this straight…
So there was a “private” session meant to be kept “confidential”, presumably a player-reps-only meeting or something of that ilk.
And what do they feel is the best way to keep it confidential?
Keep written minutes of it, apparently, so that it can be read and analyzed forever.
Who’s the idiot here?
