Ottawa Senators assistant general manager Randy Lee is accused of inappropriately touching and making lewd comments toward a hotel shuttle driver while in Buffalo for the NHL's scouting combine.

Lee was charged with second-degree harassment on Friday after being arrested and spending the night in jail.

He appeared in court Jeremy Kerley Jersey , where his Canadian passport was confiscated, and was scheduled to appear again Monday.

Lee faces a fine and up to 15 days in jail, though Erie County District Attorney John Flynn said he doesn't expect to pursue jail time.

The Senators said in a statement that team officials knew of the arraignment and were reviewing the situation.

It's unclear whether Lee has an attorney. He did not appear with an attorney at his arraignment and is no longer staying at the hotel where the alleged incident happened.

Flynn said Lee was attending an NHL function Wednesday night as part of the league's pre-draft scouting combine being held in Buffalo when he requested a shuttle to transport him back to his hotel.

Lee first asked the 19-year-old male driver if he could sit in the front seat of the van, and then made lewd comments while placing his hands on the driver's shoulders, Flynn said.

When the driver told him to stop, Lee persisted and began rubbing the man's shoulders, Flynn said.

As they arrived at the hotel about 10 minutes later, "Lee allegedly made a reference to his own private parts and made a vulgar lewd statement," Flynn said.

"The driver was obviously shaken by this Shaq Thompson Jersey ," Flynn said. Flynn said the man immediately reported what happened to the hotel's security chief.

Lee is barred from going to the hotel and having any interaction with the driver.

Flynn said he's not aware of any alcohol being involved.

"I've got a 19-year-old victim here who probably thinks it's a cool thing to get an assistant general manager of a hockey team in a car," Flynn said. "What's not cool is what happened. And that's why Mr. Lee is going to have to answer for his uncool behavior."

Lee has spent 23 seasons with the Senators and just completed his fourth as assistant GM.

He was promoted to the job in January 2014 to replace Tim Murray, who was hired to be the Buffalo Sabres general manager.

Lee is responsible for overseeing the Senators' American Hockey League affiliate in Belleville, Ontario, and developing the team's prospects. The Senators media guide lists Lee as living in Ottawa with his three children.

SUNRISE, Fla. — The Nashville Predators have already set a franchise record with 113 points.

Now the Predators (51-17-11), who visit the Florida Panthers (40-30-8) on Tuesday night at the BB&T Center Royce Freeman Jersey , have their sights set on a new goal.

With three games remaining, they have a chance to win their first Presidents' Trophy, given to the team that leads the NHL in points.

A Predators win on Tuesday would also give them their first division title in franchise history, taking the Central.

Filip Forsberg, a 23-year-old center from Sweden, leads the Predators with 61 points in 64 games. Even though he has missed 11 games with a hand injury and three because of a suspension, he is within four points of breaking his previous career best in that category.

"I want to be one of those guys who makes a difference for my team," Forsberg told The Tennessean. "That doesn't have to be on the scoreboard, but I'm more than happy if it is."

While the Predators are happy DJ Moore Jersey , the Panthers are nervous because what was a 75 percent probability of a playoff berth just two weeks ago is now a long shot.

According to hockeyreference.com, the Panthers were down to just a 6.7 percent chance of making the playoffs before Monday's thrilling 3-2 win over the visiting Carolina Hurricanes.

Defenseman Alex Petrovic scored the go-ahead goal with 7:58 left in the third period to key the win at the BB&T Center. It was just his second goal of the season.

"It doesn't come too often," Petrovic said of his goal. "But it was a big goal and a big win. We're trying to get some wins in the last week of the regular season. We have to keep pushing."

Certainly, it should help that the Panthers will be back at the BB&T Center on Tuesday. The Panthers are 13-3 in their past 16 games at home.

Another trend in Florida's favor is that, since the All-Star break, it leads the NHL in points by defensemen.

Normally, the Panthers get defensemen points from Keith Yandle, Aaron Ekblad and Mike Matheson.

On Monday, however Deonte Thompson Jersey , it was Petrovic and rookie MacKenzie Weegar. Weegar's goal was the second of his career and his first since Oct. 20.

"It has been awhile since I scored," Weegar said. "(Jared McCann) made a heads-up play, dropped the puck back to me, and I put it in the back of the net. I was happy to contribute."

The Panthers will take it because they need every victory they can get. This was Florida's 40th win of the season, just the fifth time in franchise history they reached that milestone.

The win also gave the Panthers 88 points, five behind the idle New Jersey Devils in the battle for the last wild-card playoff berth in the Eastern Conference.

Florida has four games left in the regular season. New Jersey has three.

"It's very intense," Weegar said of the playoff race. "We are fighting for every inch. We're not going to stop until the last game."
