It's always my favourite thing ever when someone on an internet forum decides that their own personal feelings about another human being's livelihood and what they should do with their life is more important then what said human being actually wants to do with their own life.
Why do you care so much if he plays again and not at the same level he once was? Does it frustrate you when you go to HockeyDB and see he won't put up PPG season's anymore? How is a person who spent their entire life being a professional athlete to the best of their abilities and wants to continue doing so pathetic? Genuinely curious how you come to that conclusion.
Making an NHL salary (even at minimum wage), living a first-class lifestyle and being around your friends/colleagues every day is a very attractive lifestyle. I can see why some players want to prolong that kind of life. I don't get internet keyboard warriors who seem to think they know what is best for these athletes simply because they watch them on a TV screen.
Very very odd to call a universally respected HOF player like Iginla pathetic, simply for wanting to do what he loves doing if a team is willing to accept him.
