Melinda Karlsson alleges Hoffman's fiancée is behind campaign of harassment
Yikes

Quote:
Melinda Karlsson has filed an order of protection against the longtime girlfriend of Senators forward Mike Hoffman — alleging a campaign of harassment that plagued the Karlssons after the death of their son and through much of the last NHL season, this newspaper has learned.
The application for a peace bond, sworn in front of Justice of the Peace Louise Logue on May 4, alleges that Monika Caryk, Hoffman’s partner, had threatened Melinda (neé Curry) and husband Erik Karlsson from November 2017 to the date the information was sworn to.
It was in late November that the Karlssons announced on social media that they were expecting their first child, a son they would later name Axel Michael who was stillborn on March 19, 2018.
“Monika Caryk has uttered numerous statements wishing my unborn child dead,” says Melinda Karlsson’s sworn statement to the court.
“She also uttered that she wished I was dead and that someone should ‘take out’ my husband’s legs to ‘end his career.’
“Monika Caryk has posted over 1,000 negative and derogatory statements about me as a professional.”
Reached on Tuesday afternoon, Hoffman said, “There’s nothing really for me to say, at this time. That’s all I can say.”

UPDATED: Team officials and Hoffman knew about harassment allegations for weeks, agent says
http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-...-erik-karlsson
Quote:
Though the application was sworn in early May, nearly one month after the Sens’ season ended in Boston, team officials, including general manager Pierre Dorion, and Hoffman have known about the allegations since the end of the regular season.

Quote:
With the NHL draft and the beginning of free agency around the corner — traditionally a time when teams test the trade waters — there has been much public speculation among hockey insiders that one, if not both players, will be dealt by the team.
Hoffman’s agent, Robert Hooper, believes it’s a certainty.
Hooper said Hoffman hasn’t asked for a trade but said he wouldn’t stand in the way of one either and that Dorion, Ottawa’s general manager, is aware of that.
“What we’ve indicated to Pierre is that, and let’s call a spade a spade, it would be very difficult for both parties — both Erik and Mike as well as the wives and the fiancées — to co-exist in the same wives’ room and the same dressing room,” Hooper said.
No demands have been made to Dorion from Hoffman’s camp but given the intense insider speculation Hooper said he thinks “the writing’s on the wall.”
“In my 22 years in this business I don’t believe that I’ve ever come across a situation like this,” Hooper said. “This is an exceptionally unique situation and one that’s very unfortunate. Hopefully it can get resolved as quickly as possible.”
Hooper said there have been several discussions with Dorion regarding the matter.
“This isn’t something we talked about with Pierre just today. We’ve been aware of this situation since the end of the season,” Hooper said.

Hoffman’s agent also expressed his confidence in Caryk’s innocence and told this newspaper Hoffman only learned of Melinda Karlsson’s application from the news report.
“It’s a very delicate and difficult situation,” Hooper said. “At this stage, we haven’t been provided anything at this point in time that would indicate Mike or Monika is involved with this type of situation.”
Hooper expressed some frustration and disappointment with only having “Mike and our side” finding out about the order of protection application from the media and not the police.
“I would have thought in this day and age … I’m surprised they weren’t able to locate Mike quicker than they have,” Hooper said.
(As a private peace bond application, the application was made by Karlsson herself, not the police. And as Caryk was the only named defendant, the summons can only be served on her, not Hoffman.)
Hooper said that the forward and defenceman have not discussed the issue.
“I think this has been between Melinda and Monika and less between Mike and Erik,” he said.

Well. Ottawa officially win the biggest tire fire in the NHL award. What the actual?
I could live with Hoffman playing for any other team than Calgary with that kind of baggage. Yikes.

Only if he dumps her, sounds like way too much baggage.

Hoffman is going to be shipped out so fast his head will spin. We could be the beneficiary of a panic move by Dorion.

Sens fans I work with filled me in on this rumour a couple of weeks ago. I laughed it off as a ridiculous rumour, but I guess it has some legs.

How is it not "ex-gf"? If you're dating someone who's doing stuff like this, it's pretty clear that they're a piece of garbage. Can't see why you'd stay with them unless you're also a piece of garbage.

This is my question. Did he know about it? If he didn't, how is it that he didn't dump her immediately upon finding out? Just weird.

Not that comments like that can be justified, but I wonder what the Karlssons did, or rather, if they did anything, to make the woman want to talk so horribly about them

Why would you want him and the crazy baggage he would bring? Screw that.

There's probably two sides to this story - but regardless of the stupid petty crap between the people involved, at some point if you're doing the absolute rubbish detailed here...you have to sit back and realize how broken you are as a human being, right? You're not a healthy individual if you do stuff like this.
What garbage, and yeah - don't date crazy.
