JK has less than 100 points in the NHL over four years and has 50 mil guaranteed for his career. :lol:

JK should send half to Bergevin for getting him paid out of sheer spite

For sure. He's pacing for less than his rookie season playing on a stacked offensive team. People saying he only gets fourth line minutes--he got even less under Julien.

Wouldn't shock me if he had a very good back half of that contract. He's playing sheltered minutes. This contract could wind up being an incredible value.



Or an absolute bomb. Guess we'll find out

Lmao this.

Might be hard to believe but some hockey players (athletes in general) work hard to be good out of love for the game and competitiveness?

I know i sure as fuck wouldnt personally lmfao but not everybody is like that. As others have stated, most hockey players love the game and want to win and be one of the greats. Their legacy comes first, the money is secondary or even tertiary.

gimme 50 mil I'm never working again. retiring on a nice lake-front property with a pizza oven, smoker, fruit farm, etc. any other opinion is retarded imo. you are gonna die regardless as early as your 40's. Earth is going to be completely destroyed within the next ten to hundred million years with zero trace of humans ever existing. legacy is silly, "i care about the two generations who will know I exist". anyone who wasn't directly involved with a historical event from before the 1930's on is already forgotten.

lmk one person you know that existed 10,000 years ago. then lmk how many people you think will even remember the sport of hockey 10,000 years from now
