The Anaheim Mighty Ducks are facing a lawsuit accusing their organization of systematic Anti-Semitism. A lawsuit filed Tuesday in Orange County, California, Superior Court alleges that coaches for the Bakersfield Condors, the minor league affiliate of the Ducks, repeatedly made anti-Semitic remarks and denied player Jason Bailey ice time because he was Jewish.
Reportedly, Ducks officials downplayed the allegations and had the Condors coaches write letters of apology. Both Condors coaches were suspended in 2009. The Bakersfield Californian reported that the reason was related to Bailey, who has now been traded out of the organization.
