it would be interesting to get a sense of how many hours per week on average the boys work per week. I assume work could be one or more of the following activities:
- on ice practice - do you count the fact that they are likely at the rink 1 hour or more before practice to stretch warm up, tape sticks etc
- off ice workouts - dryland
- public relations type stuff
- game time including travel - I am assuming that for a team like the rebels, a game in Calgary or edmonton is close to a 7 to 8 hr time commitment. obviously road trips to places like Brandon/prince George, or portland are huge time commitments.

then take the average # of hrs per week and multiply it by some wage (is $12/hr fair or should it be more) to ultimately come up with a payroll for the players
