Bowman is a bad GM IMO, I wonder if he's next

Nah, this is a millionaire being let go while he's sitting in a nice house with enough safety net for life.

There's a lot of heartless things happening between employers and employees during this pandemic, involving low to mid income earners who now don't know what their next move is to feed and house their families.

To categorize this as heartless is silly.

I guess Rocky is following in the footsteps of his dad "Dollar Bill" Wirtz.

Wait and see the reasons why, I guess. Until now, Rocky has been the exact opposite of his dad.

I know Rocky lifted the blackouts for broadcasting home games that his father had in place.

He'll get another job in hockey if he wants it, I wonder when and where it will be.
