For context: if you make more than ~$34,500 per year, you make more than USA Hockey allegedly pays all ~20-23 USWNT Olympians combined.

If they don't like it, don't play anymore. It's as simple as that. No one if forcing these women to play for the US National team. Most of them have a free University Education they received as a result of playing hockey, use those, get a career, and move on.
This whole women's sports should be treated the same as men's sports from a compensation/funding perspective is completely BS at that high of a level of sport. At the grass roots level, I completely agree. At that level, it should be you eat what you kill.
