Sadly given that the KHL level of play is largely about AHL level, guys like him can really put up numbers over there.  And apparently the KHL doesn’t care about much else; guess if whatever happened took place elsewhere, then somehow it doesn’t count.  fvck the KHL.

I knew a cop a while back and the stories that he used to tell me, re:  the types that he had to deal with...honestly man, I don't know how you do it.  But thank you for doing it!

I’ve got 10 more to go, can’t wait to call this a day. Sadly, everyone I know in this profession feels the same way.

Hey, I didn't even know. Be safe. It's a marathon, not a sprint

(I wonder if we know each other)

I know several people who completely changed their careers because they hated it so much. They only spent a few years in it though and nowhere near close to retirement benefits so made the choice a lot easier for them. One worked on getting a real estate license on the side and quit as soon as he got setup with a real estate job.

I’m not sure where you’re from but I’m in Rockland County (NY) .. if you’re not familiar it’s the first county into NY that borders Bergen county.

Yea it’s a shame really. I have ten on, ten to go. I feel like I sound ridiculous or age myself when I say this but even from when I started 10 years ago it’s changed so much. No one wants to get involved in doing anything more then they have to at this point and that in itself is what’s really sad. The people that are effected the most are the tax paying citizens that deserve a certain level of service.

I think that the owner of TBL is one of the toppest of the top dogs among the owners. Interesting that he wants to exit the club.

EDIT: nvm, should have read the article. Major derp.

I’m shocked by this. Vinick is one of the best owners in hockey. This wouldn’t make me feel too great if I was a Bolts fan.

Yeah I just read it; should’ve read it before I posted lol. But what I don’t understand is why this new guy is paying $2 billion to not have control. What’s the point? Vinick is still running everything.

I guess kind of like buying a business and retaining the owner to run the show and transition things over to you? Vinick retains some percentage of ownership but I am sure he will also get paid to run the show.

Yeah this is exactly what I was thinking.  New owner is trying to do this in as productive of a way as possible.
