Now he wants more money for doing nothing, ultimate betrayal of a team who backed him and kept their silence while paying him. They could have suspended him when he didn't show up for camp instead they supported him the whole way.
I mean, when I was on leave I still got paid my wage. Which aren't millions but is propitiate to my skill and level of experience in my industry. Which is what most NHL players make in their industry. I love how generally folks who players salaries against them like it's not the billionaires that own the teams are more truly being our class enemies who 'do nothing'.

NHL players are just getting their cut of the pie and being compensated for selling their labour like another other employee/worker.

But you probably knew all that and just want to rant.
