To me, the article implied blaming the team for unsavory characters, I said why I'd rather blame the NHL. Are you saying you absolutely and only draw the line at players who get charged with specific crimes while they're under contract with the NHL? (I don't follow what the NHL does for players who have done their 'time' for crimes they've been previously charged with.) Does the NHL agree with you? Do you expect them to do anything else? Have they done anything else? I think we're using the same idea, except I'm outright stating players currently have PR 'requirements/obligations', and that there are alternatives to suspending someone based on rumours. I'm not saying I have personal problems with the NHL, just that imo they have at least a minimum of responsibility and I trust them to take care of it.
