bIt is kind of an information gap that there is no disclosure on any NHL player on how their finances work.

What happens to a player's pay cheque making 3M in Alberta or BC or Manitoba?

How much of their endorsement money do they keep?

How much are they taxed? what sort of tax shelters do they use? When Sedins and Subban gave huge donations to hospitals how much did it actually cost them and how much did they save in taxes?

There are all sorts of memoirs publish but not one deals with how the money was managed.

from Hockey news career earnings: Wayne Gretzky is 109th at $42.6 million, Mario Lemieux is (fittingly) 66th at $52.5 million. Jagr has the highest career earnings 117.8M and a networth of 40M
