Yeah and imagine making less than 50% of what you would on the open market. Seems fair.

You should go the the team that drafts you and that's that. Only divas throw a tantrum like that.

"worked all my life for this, I deserve to choose"... NHL rookies haven't earned the right to ask for stuff in that league. They haven't proven anything at the pro level. They haven't proven anything in that league.

Lindros is a faggit

The draft is a construct to restrict the free market so they can artificially create markets in areas that wouldn't have them i.e. Carolina, Florida etc.

Rookies are extremely valuable to the NHL, regardless of whether or not they have proven anything in the NHL yet. If they weren't valuable, there would be no draft to restrict where they are allowed to play.

That's uncalled for.

You can't compare the two situations. As far as I know there is no draft organised by the workplace where they pick employees... that's just not how regular jobs work, lol

That's because most people operate under a more free market system where they apply to whatever company they want to work for. Imagine if the top student at Harvard every year had to work for a company that drafted him instead of him choosing to go where ever the (frank) he wants because he's actually really good at what he does. "Oh sorry sir, you can't work at Google because they won the Silicon Cup last year, you have to go work for the 31st best tech company otherwise it wouldn't be fair for the other tech companies".

imagine you being young, stupid and can't find your ass with two hands and a map. imagine that what you thought was so far from reality, you're ashamed to admit you ever thought it in the first.

also, imagine you have millions and now you can live, work wherever the (frank) you want for the rest of your life.

Regardless of your age and intelligence, how fat do you need to be before a map is required to find your ass? Furthermore, where is this map sold because if it's an American company, they're going to run out of paper before they can print out a map for every fat ass across America.

you know, since you're a millenial I'm really not surprised that you're advocating for a rookie player to run the show. You're in the generation of entitled young adults, after all

Does that make your generation the one that believes in indentured servitude?
