The NHL has launched a probe into ex-Florida Panthers general manager Dale Tallon over allegations he used racist language as recently as the past few months.
One source with knowledge of the investigation tells us the the league is looking into multiple alleged incidents -- including a recent exchange that took place during Tallon's final few weeks as GM of the team.
The Panthers parted ways with Tallon earlier this month -- after the team's season came to an end following a loss to the Islanders.
But according to FloridaHockeyNow.com, the league is actively looking into allegations Tallon used racial language while the Panthers were still competing in the Toronto hub.
