And Eichel has not played the entire season. He played 21 games. It is suspected the injury occurred on March 7, and he didn't play after that, but they didn't officially shut him down for the season until mid-April.

Dont know what else you are so triggered about.
The team did not "withhold" treatment either, they just wanted a different one. They were never asking him to play, only to not get surgery.
They owe him 50 Million dollars no matter what, so yes they absolutely get a say in which way that should go, particularly if their doctors think one is better than the other.
It is entirely within their rights to do so as collectively bargained with the NHLPA. If he doesnt like their decision, he can file a grievance.

Key info I missed, thank you for this.
It is still shameful, sickening and gross to call him a 'me me me' player for looking after his long term health.
