Lawyers representing agent Don Meehan have issued “notices of libel” against Wings defenseman Chris Chelios and an unspecified number of media outlets.
‘”We have sent out notices alleging libel to Mr. Chelios and various media,” Meehan’s lawyer, Graham Smith, told Canadian Web site tsa.ca. “‘This is the first step to seek remedy for defamatory remarks made against Don Meehan.”
Smith declined to name the media outlets.
Chelios said last week, “In my opinion, Donny Meehan played a role in undermining our union (during the lockout). It’s my opinion he took a role with (Bill) Daly and (Gary) Bettman and (Ted) Saskin. The players union was the least interest in (Meehan’s) mind.”
