I'm sorry but if the realization that you are fortunate to have a job , not to mention your own work ethics, isn't enough motivation then you would never work for me. There's plenty of people out there looking for work with the right attitude .
Now as for this hockey team, we could use more players like Giordano, Chucky and Smith to name a few. They were raised properly. Too many entitled passengers on this team.

This is all true if you are a brick layer or a drywaller.
But this is about managing top 1% of hockey players around the globe. You can keep preaching to your kids, but it matters not when you are an NHL player.
We see this and hear about it all the time. Motivation. Playing for each other, how to make your stars tick, etc. All nonsense?
And for the record, I am of the older generation that knows all about paying your dues and working hard etc. But being in a corporate environment for 20 years, I understand what lengths managers have to go through to get the most of their people.
But whatever, keep thinking that every professional hockey player will give you 100% just for pride and satisfaction.
