washington state recently instituted a vaccine mandate for most state employees, but despite that, rolovichhe wouldn't get vaccinated, so washington state fired him.

( applause ) okay, he's out. he can't-- he can't-- he's gone. 21 games. but keep in mind, he's a shark. if he stops moving, he'll die... is all i know about hockey. here's the most surprising part though: the n.h.l. does not have a vaccine mandate. what? then why submit the forged card?
