I think what Fartsmell means is that without the PA and his brothers before this generation and their fight for better pay, Hamrlik would be making a whole pile less than the gravy he's on now...Fred wrote:
(A) Hamrlik made $50-60 million from the PA !!, nothing to do with the fans or the owners then Scott, who pays the guy the PA or the Owner ? is this guy brain dead, sad to think he will even get a vote, wiith his IQ he's not in the position to make a judgement
Hartnell would be right too, because without their union, pay and conditions of employment would still be (adjusted for inflation,) somewhere in the 1960s
Its a union Fred, would you be happy if Hamrlik was your employee and was running his mouth about you his boss? It's the same thing. You are a member, you get one vote and you shut up, you don't give the other side ammunition...look what the NhL charged whatshisfuck in Detroit for beaking off?(B) Suggesting that he may be physically abused because Hamrlik exercised his right to speak freely
A sad days for unions and democracy when players talk like this
As for Hartnell , well he's just being a good soldier, exactly what he needs to be, to be a good hockey player, team mate, union member, And emloyee...wish we could trade Luongo for him
