you read a 540 page document? I’m not going through that but can you share the death section.
So he sustained a non hockey related injury resulting in death. The injury coming from a criminal act that he was at no fault for. Had he died on the ice he’d be paid out. Team would be reimbursed by the insurance company .
This is a situation to where I’d think the cba would be in favor of the players family being paid out. He wasn’t flying a plane, skydiving or any of the usual parts of contracts that if you’re injured or die you void the deal. If he isn’t paid out I’d say the union will change this in future cba even though this is so rare
