Embattled Ottawa Senators assistant general manager Randy Lee resigns
Ottawa Senators assistant general manager Randy Lee, who had been suspended by the organization while facing harassment charges, has resigned.
The team made the announcement shortly before 6 p.m. ET Tuesday in a brief press release.
Lee is accused of making lewd comments and rubbing the shoulders of a 19-year-old male shuttle driver when he was in Buffalo, N.Y., for the NHL’s pre-draft scouting combine this spring.
Lee, who also served as GM of Ottawa’s AHL affiliate, was arrested May 31 after prosecutors say he continued placing his hands on the man’s shoulders even after being told to stop. He also allegedly made a reference to his genitalia.
