It was funny listening to them go at each other, and props to Pinder for keeping his cool. Wills sounded genuinely upset, and I think he probably does not like Pinder at all.

Pinder hates any player over the age of 28.
In his myopic world as you get close to 30 as a player, you are old and done.
He is relentless about it.
Last year he locked onto Kopitar as being way to old and no where good enough to get the money he did...blah blah blah....Kopitar finished with 35 goals and 92 points.
