One of the big take aways is him saying he thinks its about 600 Million dollars that are due to be paid out in signing bonuses on July 1 this year.

Yes, it’s clearly about money and whatever they do, if anything do it as far away from here as possible and make the NHL pay for it. We have a limited amount of medical resources and no money available for another arena type cash grab for their “elite” league playoff.
There is really no public appetite for this in Canada.
