Ottawa was rocked this week by the news that owner Eugene Melnyk passed away. Melnyk was a polarizing figure in the NHL, but he was certainly passionate. For all his public standoffs, it’s widely known he was heavily involved in charity work. While public opinion was gradually turning against him the past few years, the hockey world will mourn his loss.
