Mike Tyson faces $1.5M lawsuit over alleged contract violation
Mike Tyson has been sued for more than $1.5 million by a Cyprus-based company that claims the former heavyweight boxing champion wrongfully broke a promotional contract in order to fight Jake Paul.
MANALAPAN, Fla. — Frustrated Ottawa owner Michael Andlauer ripped “soft tampering” on Monday, angered at a New York Post report indicating the New York Rangers would target Senators captain Brady Tkachuk as a trade target.
“This is about protecting our fans, our players and their families,” Andlauer said as he arrived at the NHL’s Board of Governors’ meeting in Florida. “Brady and his wife (Emma) just had a baby. They don’t need that in their lives.”
What was left unsaid by Andlauer, but mentioned by others, is that Ottawa was punished a first-round draft pick for their role in the aborted Evgeni Dadonov trade from Vegas to Anaheim in July 2021. (The Senators, who had traded Dadonov to the Golden Knights, failed to notify Vegas of the player’s proper no-trade list.)
Undoubtedly, the Senators feel that if they can be penalized for breaking league rules, others should suffer similar consequences. Ottawa could formally request tampering charges; Andlauer said he had not done so, while other sources said any additional action would depend on how the NHL felt about things.
(While Andlauer did not specifically cite the Rangers, it is not hard to figure out who he’s talking about. The Manhattanites denied any impropriety.)
The Rangers released a statement, which read: “This is an irresponsible accusation and we defer to the commissioner’s office.”
The accusations come one month after deputy commissioner Bill Daly warned the league’s GMs about tampering at a meeting in Toronto. On Nov. 25, all teams were sent a detailed memo, reminding everyone about rules in place and penalties for violations.
There have been situations where the NHL asked questions on its own. When John Tavares signed with the Maple Leafs, the league reached out — without the Islanders requesting — to make certain the process was clean. (Toronto was fully cleared.)
We will see where this goes.
