Roman Hamrlik points blame on NHLPA's Fehr

Roman Hamrlik had some harsh words for NHLPA head Donald Fehr, saying he should be given the boot if there's no season.

This is obviously in direct contrast from literally every other player who has spoken out. "I am disgusted," Hamrlik said as translated from ISport.cz by Roman Jedlicka. "We have to push Fehr to the wall to get the deal. Time is against us. We lost [one-quarter of the] season, [about] $425M. Who will give it back to us? Mr. Fehr? There should be voting between players. Four questions ' yes or no ' then count it. If half of players say lets play, then they should sign new CBA. If there is no season he should leave and we will find someone new. Time is our enemy." At 38, Hamrlik is likely close to finishing his career so he has less to lose (and more to gain, by playing now) by being honest.
