I think these guys are being pretty selfish, actually.
Chevy is so hampered by these three guys right now that I'm sure he's pulling his hair out.
These guys going for massive contracts amidst a salary cap era make me crazy. It's good for the NHL in someways because you don't end up with these dynasties that you see in the NFL (Pats) and NBA (Warriors) because the rich teams can afford to pay large sums for these guys. But, some of these NHL players are making big asks when teams don't have the space to pay them. It's really starting to grind my gears.
Buff had all summer to decide whether he wanted to retire. It annoys me that he shows up at training camp and then takes a personal leave because he wants to contemplate his future. Talk about sticking it to his team and management. I get that things might have changed- maybe he showed up and realized he didn't want to play anymore, but c'mon- he couldn't have decided that this summer??
