BREAKING: Donald Fehr is in Serious Trouble

Fehr was subject to the investigation after the disgusting abuse to Kyle Beach suffered in 2010 as a member of the Chicago Blackhawks. When Beach reportedly came to Fehr to report the sexual assault, Fehr ignored the situation like many others sadly.

The findings of that report are expected to be released shortly, but besides all of that it seems like Fehr will be voted out regardless and rightly so, he failed to do his job as the President of the Players association.

From Frank Seravalli:

"Fehr turns 74 in July. He guided the players through the pandemic with an extension to the Collective Bargaining Agreement that includes a flat salary cap for the foreseeable future and a $1 billion debt to owners, work that can be seen alternatively as Fehr's most brilliant or most brutal.

The pressure Fehr is facing is not ageism, but rather through the perceived lack of value he provides to the union outside of the crucial war-time labor negotiating period. Next to no new meaningful revenue has been generated by the NHLPA during Fehr's tenure. Plus, players have privately wondered about what they perceive is a too chummy relationship between Fehr, commissioner Gary Bettman and the NHL.

One thing is clear: The clock is ticking on Fehr's tenure.

Patience is wearing thin among agents, some players, and most critically, now the NHLPA's own senior staff."
