Nobody will trade for him if he won't report. It's the same as a veto. Players wanted teams to guarantee contracts, but they won't guarantee them? It worked when I signed it, but it doesn't work now? I'm not taking a side here. It just seems fckd.
The equivalent of the contract being guaranteed would be that the player is not paid if they do not report. Which is what would happen.
It seems like a sufficiently fair situation to me. By not reporting, he would be losing 12 million dollars in NHL salary, and possibly the remainder of his pro career. Additionally, he is upfront about his unwillingness to report. At this point, if a team acquires him, it is on them.
