Man Sues Hockey League When Son Isn't Named MVP
A Canadian father is suing an amateur hockey league because his 16-year-old son didn't win the league's most valuable player award.
The man is seeking about $200,000 in psychological and punitive damages from the New Brunswick (Canada) Amateur Hockey Association.
He also demands that the MVP trophy be taken from the winner and given to his son, who was the league's leading scorer.
The father says his son was so crushed at the awards banquet in March that he lost his desire to play.
An official of the league confirmed the lawsuit but declined further comment.
