As EE said, Stamkos will make more money on $8.5M in Tampa than he would $10M in Toronto. His tax exposure in Ontario is 48.43% versus 37.78% in Florida. So on Tampa's offer of $8.5M per, he takes home $5.2887M. In Toronto he has to make $10.25M per to come close. If he were smart, which he probably isn't, he'd take the Tampa offer. Unless Dallas or Nashville comes knocking there isn't a better place to earn your money than in Florida.
