NHL wins its case against Senators' Yashin
CNNSI.com NHL wins its case against Senators' Yashin -- Alexei Yashin tried to get out of the last year of his contract by sitting out all of last season. He wanted his contract renegotiated, didn't feel $3.6M USD was enough money to make in 1 year. An arbitrator has ruled he will not be a free agent this summer, and still owes the Sens another year of work. DUH!
That's a small step for fans, a giant leap for fankind!
Now, I hope the Senators make that greedy fucker sit ANOTHER season under suspension.
