if your team did it and won a cup, would you care?

the PA isn't going to care. It allows more players to get paid a better salary. most owners have already said meh to it.

why? cause putting the best players out there at the biggest time of the year benefits everyone. better ratings, attendance, merch sales, etc.

personally it's the whole thing about perfectly synchronizing the players' recovery time with the start of the playoffs, every year. it's all bullpoop and completely ridiculous imho.

Yup, Pat personally.

You may not like wearing your seatbelt either, but don’t come whining if you bump your head when you break too fast..

meh, it's like you have a problem with people who have a problem with this...

it's fine if it's all cool for you, I'd like for things to change. pretty simple really.


also I'm not sure how your example applies to any of this.

It’s the rules pat, no team is breaking them.

As I posted before, if the habs ever pull this before this loophole is closed, we’d be arguing about the weather..

how many times do I have to say I'm not arguing that rules are necessarily being broken, but I'd like a different set of rules?

holy


and as for the habs, of course I would be chuckling about it if they did the same thing, but I'd be fully aware that there's still (frank)ery going on lol. doesn't mean I don't want things to change.

Hyman ties up the game. Big goal at an important moment.

That's the kind of guy Toronto needs to start winning.
