All things considered it probably is, but of course it would be more delicious if VGK remained on the hook for his full salary and AAV (maybe less the buried penalty amount on the AAV to be 'fair' to VGK  ), and Dadonov becomes a UFA with an exemption to be eligible for playoffs wherever he signs. |
What you are referring to only exists under the Canada Labour Code, is actually called Unjust Dismissal, and very rarely applies.
Wrongful dismissal in every other way simply means the employer does not have just cause to terminate, thus the employee is entitled to notice or pay in lieu thereof.
