Vancouver Canucks Reporter Claims Blackmail After Being Banned From Arena
Vancouver Canucks reporter Rob Simpson, a seasoned journalist covering the team for years, recently disclosed that he's been banned from the Edmonton Oilers arena for over a year.
"It's been 452 days since the ban started, and when I asked why, the initial response was 'we don't have to tell you.' Stay tuned for a detailed update on this � I've got actual audio of the PR guy threatening to blackmail me, along with a new lie thrown in," Simpson shared.
Simpson alleges that the team and PR staff have kept mum on the reasons behind the ban, and he claims to possess audio evidence of threats to blackmail him.
The situation raises questions about the conduct of the Edmonton Oilers PR staff. While these claims are currently allegations, the reasons for Simpson's ban remain unclear.
Should Simpson decide to make his side of the story public, a response from the Edmonton Oilers seems likely. If they engage with Simpson, the situation could escalate, potentially leading to misconduct findings for either the Oilers or Simpson.
As this story develops, we'll continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
