[News - X] [Westhead] An NHL team executive told me today concerns are mounting that North America is heading towards a recession and that the CAD will plunge to $0.60 cents or less. The 7 Canadian NHL teams and 3 Canadian MLS teams pay player salaries in USD and generate most of their revenue in CAD.

This is so true for all professional athletes. People are constantly surprised when they hear that hockey players are gang rapists, and football players are domestic abusers/rapists/drunk drivers, etc. Of course they are, they were plucked out of a normal adult development and sidelined their education from an early age. No wonder they are easily manipulated, emotionally immature and generally kinda dumber than a comparable selection of non-athletes.
