Do players have to pay canadian income taxes or american? If canadian, they are screwed. Also, This is why the NHL gave kes and burr crap for asking ppl to take a pay cut. Money is a sensitive issue and should be a decision each makes for their own.

well if anything, kesler's best friend burrows took a pay cut of 1-2mil for him, it all evens out. I guess that's what friends are for...

Just cause he's undrafted doesn't mean he is not a good player and should settle for less. Dan Boyle is undrafted but he is hella good and making 6.7 a year. My point is, kesler tells everyone that they should take a pay cut to keep the team together, but he is the one not holding true to his own word.

Burrows must feel something more or less, despite the fact that kesler is his teammate and friend. Imagine u offered the asking price for a house but later found out u could have had it for about 40~50% less? Money is money, burrows is getting underpaid and that's the bottomline. Unless he's a monk he'll feel some jealousy.

ya actually burrows must feel like crap right now, i remember kes is the one saying everyone should take a pay cut to keep a good team together, then burr signs for 2 mil. Then, BOOM kesler 5 mil. Which to me is a debatable deal. It's probably his market value without a hometown discount. So... i donno... if he wasn't gonna take a discount contract then don't start the talk in the first place. Not taking away from the player that he is but i feel like he is a lot of talk both on and off the ice. On a side note, anyone know how much BMO took during the westcoast express years?
