the NHL doesn’t doesn’t care about this. It’s moot point as the NHL will not fix this.
its also far more complex.
For instance look at someone like Matthews. He took $14.43 million on July 1st while living in Arizona as a bonus at 39.5% taxation. He earned only $775K throughout the season.
During the season you are paid game by game. So the only location he is paid high earning is Ontario where he plays 43 games (2 in Ottawa). So he has to pay 53.53% on $406,402.44 which equals $217,547.23.
The remainder of the $368,597.56 basically doesn’t get taxed at all because it’s broken down over all the states and provinces into low earnings. 4 games in Florida during a season is a big one for instance and that’s still just $37,804.88.
He only makes $9,451.22 a game at league minimum. So if you’re wondering why bonuses are used, this is why. My curiousity is how the bonus is being used, those ways are what is beyond what I know lol
It’s a shame. It’s not just the Canadian teams that suffer, but the Rangers, Isles, Devils, etc, play in Blue, overtaxed states. Bettman is a clown, to allow this to continue. He’d rather do fellatio on the new bidder for the Atlanta Stars and Bars, than fix this inequity and keep another Canadian franchise from gaining entry into the NHL. He needs to leave now!
The Leafs fucked themselves with the Tavares contract. They have nobody to blame but themselves. They’ll make the same mistake again by keeping him for a 2nd futile contract and not trading Rielly.
They trade 10 years worth of 1st round picks, they can’t draft or develop enough impact players and they let great players leave for nothing.
Leafs are run by idiots. Different names, same results.
Here he is again – trying to disguise his opinion and hypotheticals as facts. I feel like he thinks if he posts crap in great lengths, folks won’t bother reading it all.
pretty much, “They traded 10 years of 1st round picks”
the leafs have had a 1st round pick in 7 of the last 10 drafts. And the 3 they didn’t, these were the 3 first picks Robertson, Knies and Minton.The leafs drafting is average and probably a little better than the average team.
Watching what?
Marner becoming a second/third liner on another team and riding the goat tails of actual playoff performers to a cup victory?No team close in the hunt for cup will sign marner to the contract he wants. If he wants $13 – 14m, he’ll sign with team thats still 3 – 4 years out.
Marner is gone.
Get over it.Watching you be wrong, as usual.

Enjoy watching this, 2.0.Watching what?

Get over it.I just got banned at HB until August 1st because I said.
“Lets get these garbage playoffs over with.
Frank Paul Maurice”WTF.
the NHL doesn’t doesn’t care about this. It’s moot point as the NHL will not fix this.
I’m not saying the NHL does care or will fix it. But the players care about what they take home and that factors into what they ask for from certain teams.
People can’t sit there and pretend like the guys in Florida are “good boys taking discounts” and players signing in Toronto are “greedy” because the reality of what they take home is different than the cap hit.
This boils down to the Leafs absolutely sucking at drafting, developing and managing their assets. They traded 10 years of 1st round picks away, they don’t develop enough impact players, they let their best players walk for nothing and they bring back garbage players because they’ll take a “discount” so they can afford to sign more garbage players.
Garbage in, garbage out.
If Reinhart was a UFA this year, he’d be asking for 16 AAV from the Leafs and 12 AAV from Florida. He became a UFA at the wrong time.
Everybody also said “you can’t win a Cup spending 10 million on a goalie” when they signed Bob – The Goof
Here he is again – trying to disguise his opinion and hypotheticals as facts. I feel like he thinks if he posts crap in great lengths, folks won’t bother reading it all. I am impressed he’s only using 2 alts in here so far. So maybe he’s growing up? No more nuggies and Mountain Dew – now full tenders and Pepsi!…his mommy still cuts the tenders for him obviously – let’s not get crazy.
