If Ovechkin said if you trade me, I'll go back to Russia, he also has that right. He just has to bare in mind that it will be the last dollar he earns from the NHL. If Kipper has decided he'd rather stop getting paid, than being traded, that's his call.

Yes, I'm not arguing the fact that he has the right to do so. I'm saying it's a bad way to treat an organization that gave you pretty much all the success you have. It's like saying he has the right to move out of the way of a shot in OT of game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals and give everyone the finger. He has the right to do whatever he wants, that doesn't make it right.
