Your evidence, please? ‘I believe a crime is occurring because you can't prove there isn't’ doesn't count.

This is quite wrong. Article 26 of the CBA explicitly says that if an owner, or any other person affiliated with an NHL club, does anything or makes any payment that would contravene the CBA, it shall be considered a contravention by the club itself and dealt with accordingly. It is specifically forbidden for any club or any owner to offer a player money to be paid after his retirement, or to offer any player an off-ice job or sponsorship at above-market pay.

I came here to discuss hockey, not stupid conspiracy theories. But if that's what people are going to subject me to, I'm going to kick about it.
If somebody can tell me what Keith is being paid for his new job, and show that it is above the normal pay for that position; or if they can show evidence of under-the-table payments made to Keith or Smith or anyone else — then let's hear it. Otherwise this is just a load of balloon juice.
