Multiple Teams Filing Player Tampering Charges With The NHL
Elliot Friedman has recently came forward with the following statement:
''I think we're going to see some tampering accusations. What I'm curious about is does this become anything actionable, does the league go after this? I got told on Wed. night after I got done work, look out, there's going to be accusations here.''
This could very well be linked to the tampering news that Philadelphia Flyer Tony DeAngelo leaked on a podcast about himself and Kevin Hayes.. In a interview with a Philadelphia Flyers talk show Tony DeAngelo revealed that Flyers forward Kevin Hayes convinced him to take the leap of a trade and to leave Carolina, well that sure happened- and if you are not aware it is considered player tampering as each player has signed a agreement not to do so.
Tony DeAngelo was also questioned on the podcast ''Now that you are with the Flyers and Kevin Hayes will you two be looking to do some more recruiting to possibly land a free agent that you guys both know'' (referencing Johhny Gaudreau). DeAngelo responded with saying ''that's a absolute yes''.
Gaudreau than declined a $10 million dollar contract in Calgary so that he can play closer to home, home being just on the outskirts of Philadelphia where he was born and raised. Not the smartest look for Tony DeAngelos first two days in Philly...
