NHL is cool with screwing over college hockey and Universities

I have always felt like NHL commish Gary Bettman is a little sleazy and his latest comments about Minnestoa's Kyle Okposo haven't exactly calmed my feelings. Basically, he said that its ok for a player to leave his school hanging to go chasing after a big paycheck at any time during his career. Never mind the commitment he made to his school, teammates, fans and, oh yea, getting a degree. To me it seems like a disgrace that an NHL team would actively pursue an amateur player to leave early. Granted, the draft status of many players is decided early in college, if not before, but they still have pledged loyalty to their program and hopefully to themselves to get an education. There aren't enough Billy Sweatts in this world I guess.
