Than again, why should they be paid much more, when they only play 16 times a year, and might only have 5 minutes of actual exertion in a game?
Non-guaranteed contracts must be a real sticking point.

You need to elaborate more.
One thing you miss is that NFL players spend more time in practise and film rooms than any hockey player ever will.
But you don't see many players in the NHL having 20million plus for a signing bonus which is gauranteed money for doing nothing.
The biggest issue I have with the NFL system is the rookie gauranteed money. I finid it just ridiculous that a team has to shell out such big money for rookies, who are unproven.
