And they get suspended by their own teams and aren't allowed to play because the IIHF honors suspensions from all leagues. As the Sportsnet article by Damien Cox said, if the players really wanted some control they would have negotiated it into the CBA, but they didn't. This really only effects less than 20% of the players so I am surmise that the majority could care less.
