Absolute nonsense. The decision that was made was Pocklington's. He chose
20 mill over Gretzky. If Gretzky wasn't upset about not being able to win
a cup in LA then I submit that he wasn't worth the 20 mill.

How do you know what he thinks (or thought)? The only "thought" that I
can see that you have revealed is your own. You don't like Gretzky.
Big deal.

The real purpose of diving is not merely an attempt to draw a penalty. What
the player is trying to do is make the checkers keep their distance so the
ref won't be fooled. I can't imagine why anyone would expect someone like
Lemieux to change his game. Why don't you pick on 1 dimensional over-rated
type like Hull and Salami.
