Yeah, I saw some of that too. No surprise, really, but it is still sickening.
As for these players, I guess they need to decide whether very publicly coming out against Putin’s invasion and risking a little Polonium dusting is worth it or not.
I wouldn't risk it, especially if I have family still living in Russia. If they ask me, "I'll just say I came to America to play hockey and that's what I am going to do."
