Again I don't grasp what the amount of money someone has made has anything to do with this. Is there a certain amount of money that makes it OK? 1M? 10M? How much money would it take for you to accept living with concussion symptoms the rest of your life?

I would further suggest that only in the last few years we've been able to truly understand the long-term impacts of concussions. To say that Lindros understood this while he was playing is unfair.

Society is too protective?
Former players are dead. You are OK with that?
comparing it to people that choose to be a firefighter or cop is not apples to apples.

Hockey CAN be played with reduced physicality. It is possible. if you choose to stop watching it that's fine, but it is a sport that can actually evolve and still be incredibly entertaining.
