That's their job.

Okay?

The NHL.. again.. is around 53 percent.

Again, people's ignorance on this subject shows. The players arn't being unreasonable at all.

Okay?

Okay,so why do you say they are not just employees,when that's exactly what they are.

Being the product on the field is their job.

The point is you can't just replace them and expect the same results. If you get fired you can be replaced but Payton Manning and Tom Brady cannot. Just look at what happened with Cleveland with Lebron and without Lebron. The team lost tons of money because he was the reason fans came to see them play.

Don't be so sure,no one else wants to clean the crapper.

But I do see what you meant.
