"it's been good PR but fata that guy" isn't exactly an enlightened stance and shows us living with depression and anxiety etc that people really don't care about just pay lip service that is easily thrown away if they don't get their way.

There is enough depression, anxiety and mental health issues happening everywhere in todays world, perhaps being driven in part by technology, lifestyle and the garbage food we are all used to eating today. A different convo perhaps.
That being said, when you went back to work and had a fair salary for your work, did you accept things and see how things go? Or did you make it clear to your employer that you had other considerations to make and that you would be looking at potential options with the competitors?
We all have had relationships/friendships where 1 side feels they have extended a lot of goodwill and courtesy to another and feel a bit slighted if people want to explore other options or don't pay back what we deem is loyalty. Heck, Tampa Bay made an insulting offer to their franchise player to bring in other guys. Stamkos is a legend and was kicked to the curb.
I don't think it's unreasonable to say that perhaps Oliver isn't really driving the bus in this regard and probably shouldn't think so. A marquee player, a top notch employee or a celebrity just is in a different category than a bubble one. Elite is elite.
I actually hope we are all wrong and he goes onto sign a great deal and has a great career and has to never look back onto the dark days again.
