I think for the most part they’re overpaid. And when they decide to build a new stadium/arena “just because” that really pisses me off. For example, the Wings used to play at the Joe. But for no apparent reason, they decided to move and built Little Caesars arena. The Joe got torn down. Legends played there, but suddenly it wasn’t good enough.
With that kind of money, there’s a lot better things they could put it to.
