Wideman's days as a NHLer are done, and I wish him nothing but prosperity and well being in the future.

His days are done after damaging this teams reputation across the league and with the refs. His days are done after being paid a ridiculous amount of money over the last 5 years. If he wants to be an ass and carry himself like an entitled pos that's his decision. I don't feel pitty for a guy who has banked in an insane amount of money and is now all pissy that he isn't getting playing time. Why anyone would pitty him is beyond me. It's a cut throat business and Wideman should know this, he's benefited greatly from it. I would like to know what Wideman has done for the ref after he may of ended his career. He is "suffering" because of himself and how he has underperformed, I don't feel bad for him for one second. The world is filled with many people who really do struggle every day, maybe Wideman is struggling with something else I don't know, but I will not be empathetic towards someone who has had the career he's had and made the money he's made. Give me a break
