The New York Islanders HAVE to pay their goalie Rick DiPietro $10.5m over the next 7 seasons (ending 2029) at a rate of $1.5m per season (quick maffs).
In the world of sports this doesn’t appear to be that much money at all, until you realise….
Rick DiPietro retired in 2013! 🤣
Rick has already collected $13.5m from the NYI since his retirement.
I’m in the wrong job 🤦🏼♂️
