whiners...they get paid millions...if they dont want to be there leave

To be fair, the vast majority of those guys don't actually get paid "millions". That's just the superstars.

As to the rest, yeah they make way more than we do, but most of them don't have long careers and relatively very few of them are "set for life" when their careers end.

Wish every team had a Tony Dungy type, to help with 'life coaching' and a Dave Ramsey type for basic money management.  It's not sexy but if you cared about your players, you'd find a way to do it.

Agree. There's a reason why a lot of these guys, even some of the big moneymakers, wind up broke within a few years of their career ending.

Bashing and calling someone a whiner for being real about working conditions that’s made a total taxable career income of just over 9mill but siding with greedy BILLIONAIRES is a Novel concept…. 

$9 million…how old is he?…how many yrs has he played?

    • Say two guys buy a pair of 48" waist pants. One of them is already 45" waist. The other has a 32" waist. The guy with the 32" waist has more room to grow to fit into the really big pants.
    • You know it's interesting to see what I assume are grown men/women(?) having total meltdowns about these games. Canes aren't playing well, it's obvious we miss Pesce because our D has not been as good - no real backup plan on D because TDA is washed and our prospects aren't ready.  We look slow and even with Guentzel playing well we still don't have enough.  Shesterkin is playing pretty well and the Canes seem to run into a hot goalie and decide they need to find the perfect shot before throwing pucks at the net. Burns has definitely slowed down, Staal is another year older, and I think the team just tightens up in the worst moments.  It's almost as if the Canes would be better off as a lower seed, the underdog....trying to beat the odds. Winning the Stanley Cup is incredibly hard and we are seeing why....that OT goal wasn't on Koochie, it was an insane redirect by Panarin.  If anything Orlov overskating a weird puck carom gave the Rags that chance.  Canes have to score more than 2 GPG to win, they haven't really done that. I do think no matter how this series ends up (yes, I am still holding onto the slight chance we have to win this series), that the offseason is going to be one of change.  I really want the Canes to lock up Guentzel, he is a guy we need.  I think Pesce might be gone, Staalsy might retire, Skjei isn't going to be cheap, we should re-sign Necas contrary to what a lot of fans think.  Gotta buyout Kuzy, let TDA walk, see if we can find someone to take KK off our hands. Change is a coming.....
