Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) http://detnews.com/article/20100610/METRO/6100379/Palace--Ex-staffers-stole-trade-secrets Apparently when Wilson jumped ship and joined Illitch's team he enticed a few Palace employees to tag along. I guess they also brought some confidential business-sensitive stuff along with them, breaching the Trade Secret Act. There's a small paragraph in there, though, about Wilson inquiring on behalf of Olympia of buying PSE and the Pistons. Also: I guess this isn't really hockey related, sorry if it must be moved to the 'Cooler. Edited June 10, 2010 by Echolalia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CaliWingsNut Report post Posted June 10, 2010 Not if they brought over any sensitive documents. It doesn't sound like they did though. It sounds like PSE is complaining about a couple client lists and suite pricing, which are not exactly confidential info. The clients on the lists likely already had professional or personal relationships with the marketing people; losing the individual making the sales is worse than the list. As to the suites, short of those offered by promotion, the prices should be relatively easy to figure out. I could see an issue with more detailed financial or management systems, but things like that were not mentioned in the article. It looks more like a sour grapes legal issue over a bunch of people jumping ship to the larger more stable sports organization in town to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
