To be honest I really couldn't give a shit what they do. They get all pissy because they're "not making enough money", then once the league folds they jump ship the first chance they can get. I don't buy any of this "making a living" bullshit at all. When you're making $3-4 million a year for playing a fucking game, you're not going on welfare any time soon. It furiates me to no end how players can be so unloyal and selfish to the league, and make no attempt whatsoever on trying to help it re-establish itself. Guys like Thornton who are joining European leagues, but have opt-out clauses that allow them to come back to the NHL if the lockout ends piss me off. They're making no attempt at trying to help the league that "made" them (granted they are GREAT talents, but would not be as known worldwide if it wasn't for the NHL). They have no respect, and are just going where the money is. Pisses me off.
