"Pro athletes are not cocky. Pro athletes care about the game. Everybody out there who calls us spoiled because we play a game - they can kiss my ass."

Roenick went on to say that the players didn't want those so-called "fans" at the rink.

"I will say personally, personally, to everybody who calls us spoiled - you guys are just jealous... We're trying to get this thing back on the ice and make it better for the fans. If you don't realize that, then don't come. We don't want you in the rink, we don't want you in the stadium, we don't want you to watch hockey."

What the hell is wrong with Roenick? This guy irritates the hell out of me. When hockey comes back you know the crowd will still be there. Thats what kills me too many die hard fans.

The fans pay his salary, so maybe no one should show up to his games, and then we'll see how much mashed potatoes his wife will be cooking him for dinner.

yo i just watched his remarks on sportsnet just now, and JR is a total *****. He called the fans jealous??? he doesn't realize that the hardcore fans can't even afford to sit in the arenas to watch a game, because they don't earn "millions", as he is agonizing over his loss..... keep on crying JR.

I can't believe a guy like iginla would even side with him. Oh well I won't be watching the hockey games this year. Unless we make it past 2nd round.
