NHL Union Denies e-Mail Snooping

An AP newswire article, via Wired News, reports that:

NHL union chief Ted Saskin on Thursday denied monitoring player e-mails, contending predecessor Bob Goodenow ordered such actions. Goodenow denied the allegation.

Saskin's future as executive director of the NHL Players' Association could be decided Sunday night when the NHLPA confers with its executive board. The board is composed of player representatives from all 30 NHL teams and the seven-member interim executive committee.

"I plan to address the board on Sunday night, and the board will learn that Bob Goodenow had instructed NHLPA employees to review player e-mail accounts and this occurred during the lockout and I was not aware of this until much later," Saskin told The Canadian Press.

Goodenow, in a statement though lawyer Jane Milburn, said: "I am unaware of an instance where the security of a single player's e-mail or other personal information was compromised."
