But his salary? Probably around the same as any other CEO/president of a $3 Billion dollar company would make. It's less than half of the commissionaires of NFL and MLB and probably NBA as well. I got nothing against that. I have more of a problem with a 20 year old kid making half a million dollars every two weeks, after taxes.
Entry level contracts prevent 20 year old kids from making much more than league average, only the highest paid players would be anywhere near half a mil a week, not sure if anybody in the NHL would be in that area
