Last week, Jeff Marek, one of the most respected NHL journalists and a prominent figure at Sportsnet, was abruptly removed from his position, causing a shockwave throughout the league and on social media.

The reason for his sudden departure was revealed this morning by Katie Strang and Dan Robson of The Athletic.
Marek is accused of using privileged information obtained during the recent NHL draft to benefit his friend Mark Seidel, a former recruiter for the Wild. Seidel allegedly used this information to predict draft picks on Twitter before their official announcement.
Marek is not accused of engaging in fraudulent betting but is under investigation.
His dismissal by Sportsnet, the NHL's official partner, was handled discreetly, without an official announcement. The future of his career remains uncertain.
