Confirmed with Link: Randy Lee to be arraigned in Buffalo court

[Micklebot]

You can’t really employ an alleged predator because if further allegations come forward, you can be seen to have tolerated a culture of harassment etc. Unless he is wholly exonerated (not just found not guilty), he can’t be part of your organization.

At the very least, you need to run an internal investigation. Firing a guy for allegations comes with it's own pitfalls if they never end up proven. Either way, the org needs to protect itself by investigating the matter. I guess they could just give him a nice severance package and hope it goes away.

From witness accounts he was jerking off in the back

Severance costs money

This can't be real right? Wouldn't that be worse than a "violation"?

 

[Pancakes Pancakes]

I know that any criminal charge against and he wouldn't even be able to cross the border anymore. Would be quite difficult to do his job if that were the case. I'm not sure if this would qualify for that though.

Severance costs money

lawsuits can cost much more.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Worse than i had expected, throw it on the heap that is the 17/18 Sens, again i hope the victim is making out alright.

 

[Ray Kinsella]

Does this guy have kids of his own?

 

[Sensinitis]

Bye Randy

 

[Sensung]

He does have 3 children. 2 boys and a girl.

Good lord... the poor kids now will probably be shamed. What a total disaster!

God this team is a joke.

Not if fired for just cause. No severance.

 

[Daffy]

God this team is a joke.

Maybe so. Which obviously is mostly because of the owner we have. But one individuals stupid actions doesn't make this team a joke. He'll be fired. No one could have known he'd do something like this.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Bye Randy

You think he gets fired?

 

[Daffy]

You think he gets fired?

If this is true? Of course he's getting fired.

 

[The Lewler]

That's some pretty insane stuff Yost just posted.

I hope he gets sued for libel if he's wrong.

I don't know what to think.

Truculence. Setting a precedence for Tkachuk

 

[Langdon Alger]

There’s a current situation of sexual harassment in our own hockey team and you’re still ****ing lollygagging on correcting people. You really have zero conscience.

Kudos for using the word lollygagging.

Send him home and keep paying him. Same as normal firings in the league.

We're starting to drift into dangerous territory.

How often do we see an accusation of this nature, and within a short time, more people come forward with allegations? If this indeed happened, to do it where there was witnesses...that's pretty brazen.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

What an abomination.

I bet JR and Steve would LOVE to talk about Lee busting a nut during their next morning segment since all they do is make lightly coated sex jokes.

Hopefully Lee is the only bust this summer for the Sens

God this team is a joke.

Why is one individual's actions reflective of the entire organization? Are you saying Erik Karlsson is a joke because Randy Lee broke the law????

First off, way to take that at it's most literal meaning possible. Second, have you been under a rock the past year?

It’s a joke because there is never any good news from this team.
