Most teachers have been training for teaching since 18 Along with practicing hockey players need to get in their best physical condition and have to invest alot of money into hockey. Sure hockey may be just a game, but it has drawn many nations together watching something they love Although teachers should be paid more money, hockey requires way more talent and work. Hockey players deserve way more than teachers.<br><b>References : </b><br> Obviously you don’t know how much time and commitment nhl players have put in to better themselves at what they do

Most nhl players have been practicing and playing hockey since age four.

Most teachers have been training for teaching since 18

Along with practicing hockey players need to get in their best physical condition and have to invest alot of money into hockey.

Sure hockey may be just a game, but it has drawn many nations together watching something they love

Although teachers should be paid more money, hockey requires way more talent and work. Hockey players deserve way more than teachers.

The Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan owns 58.4% of MLSEL. Just a little fact about the poor teachers, maybe they should be talking to their union about matching their salaries to hockey players' salaries.<br><b>References : </b><br> Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd.

Do you know how hard it is to even be in the NHL? They work their butt's off all year long. Teachers just hand out worksheets and book work and they also get the summers off. Some teachers make kids life a living hell. How's that for a good role model? They are getting a little more than what they deserve. It's a billion more times easier to be a teacher than a hockey player. And if anyone would like to disagree, lets check out the hockey workout room and on-ice practices, you wouldn't last a second.<br><b>References : </b><br> everyone is acting like hockey is an easy thing.

If you are trying to justify teachers earning more than hockey players, you need to realize that even though hockey is one of the "lowest" paying professional sports the minimum paid hockey player still earns half a million dollars. This would mean that teachers would then need to earn more than half a million and there is no way that the money is available to do that. Teachers certainly should make more money then they currently earn, but there isn't enough funding to go around. There would be a lot more people wanting to become teachers. Teachers are great role models and offer students guidance that they can use for the rest of their lives. If the money is there then teachers should earn more.<br><b>References : </b><br> It is tough to compare the two.

They have to devote a lot of off-the-clock time to grading and helping students and such, not to mention teacher's still have lives outside of school to maintain. Teachers are what help raise up the next generation. They watch-over, nurture, and educate children almost (and sometimes more) than parents do.
