It’s not the money. These guys can all afford to take the insignificant fines. It’s the league mandated repercussions for anyone who dares to question the *integrity* of the league. Can’t embarrass Gary and get away with it.
McDavid pointed upstairs that one time and the league f***ed him for years. It's not worth the players saying/doing anything unfortunately.

This is where the coach and/or management has to bite the bullet and take the hit. Show the players you have their backs.

IMO, they’re still f***ing him. Still doesn’t draw nearly the amount of calls that he should

Holloway was awesome, especially in the playoffs. But Podkolzin fills in on that line with Drai so well. He is constantly disrupting the opposition with good positioning, throws punishing hits, and just makes smart plays in the O-zone to maintain possession.

Holloway may get more pts through his career, but I think Podz has Nichushkin like potential to be a perfect glue guy who can also put points up with this team.

If mcdavid stood on the bench and did the “quiet down” arms to the crowd during the “REFS YOU SUCK” chant, he would earn some brownie points.

I swear my compliment to Kazari one game I was there worked in our favour. I yelled “HEY KOZARI” and saw his head twitch in my direction then yelled “YOURE DOING A GREAT JOB” and he smiled a beaming smile
