from TSN,
“That was the biggest scam job, execution, that I’ve ever seen in my life.”
This was how Hockey Hall of Famer and former NHLPA builder Ted Lindsay described the evalution and subsequent firing of former NHLPA executive director Paul Kelly in an interview Thursday with TSN’s Darren Dreger and Bill Watters on AM 640 Toronto Radio.
Lindsay was in Chicago last week for union meetings that resulted in Kelly’s dismissal and, though he sat in on few of the discussions, said he was dismayed by what he did see.
“I was thinking, boy, this is really a cruxifiction of Paul Kelly that’s going on.”

added 2:33pm, Pierre LeBrun of ESPN has more from Ted.
