Ethan Bear, a former defenseman for the Edmonton Oilers, and his family have lately been going through a difficult time as a result of a loss in the family.

The Vancouver Canucks made�Ethan Bear a healthy scratch the other night. Many people assumed a trade was on the cards, but the actual reason became clear a day later when the Bear family lost their dog. John Tortorella left the NHL two years ago for the same reason.
Unfortunately, Ethan and the Bear family have faced a lot of criticism for Ethan's decision to step down due to the death of their dog. A former Toronto radio host gave Ethan a harsh critique, and it's simply not fair.
Wait. Ethan Bear is missing a game in the NHL because his dog died??? The NHL????

I have pets I've lost pets. It's not a spouse or a child. It's the NHL.

If someone's family member died.. they should leave theindefinitely, until they feel they're ready to return. What is your opinion on how much time is appropriate for a player on your favorite team after a pet dies? Just the one game? 2?Indefinitely? How do you define it
What do you think about this situation?
