News Article: Eugene Melnyk lawsuits:too many to count...

A day behind is an improvement.

I'm surprised I didn't also get a link to a random 3-year old article about LeBreton that had nothing to do with the topic at hand as well in that post.

Can't see how TC doesn't receive 30-31 offer sheets at this point, next summer

BTW does anybody knows when exactly is Seattle allowed to make any NHL move such as offer sheets?

As soon as their $650M bank draft clears.

Not until after the expansion draft.

Ok thanks

I'm 100% ready for 18 months of "payment in the form of bank drafts" memes here on HFSens.

Or the legendary ''Correction, Senators Sports & Entertainment was playing poker that night ''

It is a real shame the Senators owner is such a tire fire.

Any rebuild usually provides some hope but EM makes liking the Sens a really tough thing to do...

Dork.

I can only think he is saying for them to deal with the bank, which caused the lawsuit. I have no clue why they dishonoured a TD Bank draft. Either way, I'm sure he had his chances to avoid yet another embarrassing headline or pay up. He chose embarrassing.

Thanks. At least he didn't use all of his credit application! Left with 100k on it! Anyway the drafts are included in there. I've never seen one in Australia, looks like a cheque to me!

Only new things I learned from those docs is that Sheldon Plener (Sens governor) is the one who was first legally informed and provided an affidavit. Melnyk first applied for the 1,000,000 credit line with the casino while he was still biovail CEO

A million dollar line of credit to gamble!!!! my GOD..he could not have donated that to charity? be reckless, just for the pleasure of tapping his fingers on the table when he wants an extra card if he is showing a 7 and a 4 !!!!

This guy does not need to be condemned, he needs to be helped. As in a shrink. Millions of people will starve to death the world over this year and he is interested in hitting on a Queen/two !!!! And he wants our tax dollars to build him an arena.

He is making Mayor Watson seem like the most sensible human being on the planet.

Ehn, it's his money he can do with it as he pleases, I agree there are better uses than gambling but that is his prerogative.

The problem is when the debt that is owed isn't paid.

 

[The Lewler]

TD bank dishonoring those drafts means something fun is afoot in there somewhere.

Could it be a technicality? Maybe. Is it likely after all this time? I doubt it.

Agreed, and EM does give to charity, as well as apparently gamble.

Personally I’d rather he just gave me the 900000 if he was going to do different, but hey I have my own and my families best interests at heart.

 

[Silencio]

Yeah...those don't look like any bank drafts I've ever seen or issued. These are bounced cheques.

I know it's a minor detail, but the instruments in question do have a "ChkNbr" in top right.

My complete laymans opinion is they are probably special cheques from a private wealth management account.

 

[The Lewler]

We had a couple posts going, first by silencio, about how the instruments in their estimation don't look like usual bank drafts.

You have Mr. Melnyk opening a 1 million LOC at a casino back when he was at the height of his powers at Biovail.

This is interesting information, and I would like to see us talk some more about that stuff. Does anyone have any experience with private wealth mgmt. structures and accounts?

 

[The Lewler]

I tend to agree with @Silencio, the instruments in question don't look like any bank draft I have seen or can find examples of online.

This is what I want to know. I've never seen one and the court documents look like cheques to me. Someone that has seen bank drafts, do they normally look like cheques? I imagined they would look more like deeds. No idea why I thought that.

 

[DaveMatthew]

This certainly looks like a "bank draft" Eugene printed out on his computer, and not something that would have been issued by TD...
