Ted Saskin suspended.

The NHLPA (National Hockey League Players Association) executive director Ted Saskin and senior director Ken Kim have been suspended with salary yesterday by the NHLPA.

Saskin has been accused of monitoring the email exchanges between the NHLPA members. In a conference call yesterday evening, the 30 members representing the 30 NHL teams have decided to suspend both Saskin and Kim. Then the 30 members agreed to hire an independant lawyer to help with the daily operations until a new executive is named.
