High-ranking Executive Forced To Leave Minnesota Wild After Making Allegations against Bill Guerin
The Minnesota Wild and a high-ranking executive who spent a decade with the team have agreed to part ways following an investigation into Wild President and GM Bill Guerin.
Andrew Heydt, who spent 10 years as the Wild's Director of team Operations, has left the team after accusing Guerin of verbal abuse."After 10 years with the #mnwild, director of team operations Andrew Heydt and the Wild have mutually agreed to part ways, I'm told. Heydt had accused Bill Guerin of verbal abuse. The Wild investigated via third party law firm but declined to publicly disclose the findings."
"The Wild said in a statement last week that they took steps to appropriately address the matter. Guerin remains in his post as President of Hockey Operations/GM."

An outside law firm investigated the allegations against Guerin from late November, which included interviewing more than 15 members of the organization.
"Two team sources indicated that the investigation into Guerin's alleged behavior was complete and the findings were delivered to upper management and ownership early this week. Wild management determined that Guerin had not committed a fireable offense, team sources said Wednesday."
Assistant General Manager Chris O'Hearn also recently left the team, following a probe that the Wild insists was not related to the Heydt investigation. No further comment was offered by the Minnesota Wild.
