Or "hey Dale you don't have to come back"

I agree come back and finish your contract , but he is not alone. Other players on his team said the same and I heard Ottawa felt the same.

I think any player not playing for a playoff spot wan't feel to thrilled to go play 11 meaningless games away from home

It’s not just away from home but as isolated as possible, and then when it’s done you end up putting your family at risk, so you need to spend another two weeks sequestered in your home away from your family.

That’s why my round robin idea is so great, because the Habs could technically still make the playoffs...

Oh I understand the sentiment but it's easy to feel that way when you've been paid 90% of your yearly salary. If players try to play hardball with the owners, the owners will retaliate as well.
And let's be honest, the billionaires will always win just like they always do in labour negotiations.
Plus the fact that both sides need to recoup overall league revenue like we've discussed to death already. The players might not like it but they'll come back if the league thinks that it can salvage the season.

For those consumers reliant on goods from China. We are not them nor close.

You might want to look into pharmaceuticals, prescriptions and vitamins. Also, computer/smartphone components. Just because something is "manufactured" in one country doesn't mean everything within it is from that country. Anyway, you do you! Buying based on your own ethical standards is noble for anyone.

Other than our phones we buy every 4-5yrs none of the above we purchase. We have all of what we need other than food smokes tokes etc.

Trailer Quarantine Day# 4 Movie# 11 Blood Diamond

A really good movie all around. Great action, suspense, drama, and the story is some really sad (frank)ed up poop. You never look at a diamond the same and the whole "3 months salary" after watching this.
Leo's accent is bang on and Jennifer Connelly is smokin'

A Movie Quote: This is what a million people looks like. At the moment, the second largest camp in Africa. Might catch a minute of this on CNN, somewhere between Sports and Weather.

Then they have no pride as hockey players. Fans want to see the season commence and playoffs, you're doing it for them. The league needs revenue to ensure things don't get completely fvcked up money wise. I doubt players want the league saying "With the lost revenue, we are cutting your salaries in half and dropping the cap ceiling to recoup costs." because they can do that. The league will already lose revenue for next season when they can't have fans in stadiums.
