Ducks to file formal tampering charges

From Dan Wood of the Orange County Register:

One day after suggesting that the NHL look into a potential Edmonton Oilers tampering violation regarding right wing Corey Perry, General Manager Brian Burke said Friday that the Ducks will file a formal charge with the league.

Reached earlier Friday via E-mail, NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly said the league “would need to receive a formal charge with supporting rationale” before launching any tampering investigation.

Burke confirmed that the Ducks intend to submit just such a formal request either later Friday or Monday.

I can’t see anything coming of this except for a continuation of Burke versus Lowe.
