If they do go, its obviously a breach of contract...thats a no-brainer.
The league will not allow that to happen without penalty. I would guess that at some point we hear a declaration form the league offices that any player who leaves him team mid season to play elsewhere, will face a pretty heavy suspension upon their return. 8 games or something along those lines IMO.
If they do go and get signifgantly injured, I would suspect, depending on the player and the team, they would have their contracts terminated completely for breach.
Will be interesting to follow.

I'm a fan of anarchy so I would really enjoy a mass of star players packing up and leaving the biggest hockey league in the world mid season for a tournament. It would be great.
