Excellent synopsis. Ed Kea's head injury when sent to the minors brought to light problems with the NHL players insurance changes. All those changes were "hush-hush" and Kea's family was desperate for a number of years. Brad Park was a big part of exposing Alan Eagleson's corruption.
This report is merely the tip of the iceberg for the Eagle's wrongdoings. Players from the Original-6 days and expansion 12 days would tell you they ALL were owed money by Eagleson. Sadly, many passed away destitute due to his fiscal mismanagement.

He was a crook. The way he screwed over Bobby Orr was criminal.
Evil incarnate.
