That has nothing to do with professionals or careers, it was a swipe at pride and whether he'd win or not in CBJ and respect for the team that employed him.

Just admit to yourself that you're mad that Johnny left, and then take a deep breath and realize that he's a grown man that can make decisions how he so feels. He didn't Adam Fox the Flames, he didn't pout and Baertshi, he didn't loophole back into the draft through NCAA, he f-ing came here for 10 years. You wanna be mad, how about looking at the guy that could have signed him?
We wouldn't be mad if Johnny just wanted to go back home, it's how he went about it that pisses me off. I sincerely believe that it was his plan all along to go UFA and sign elsewhere, and yet he looked into cameras several times and lied about wanting to stay here. We slag Francis all the time, but he was right, and tried to inform us. Johnny could have given management the opportunity a long time ago to trade him and get something for him, but he chose to wait until the 11th hour, and he screwed us over. At least Chucky let Tre know in plenty of time, so he could be traded and luckily, Tre got a good haul-or this franchise would've been set back years. My opinion, but screw Johnny Hockey-we now cheer for Jonny Hockey.
