Montreal, Carolina, Detroit maybe Columbus, and the Rangers if he's ok with a rebuild (he won't be) are likely destinations in the East outside of NYI. Flames have a better upside than all of those teams not named Columbus. Outside of that, he will likely come out west.

Have you ever flown east to work? Have a 8 am meeting that is really 6am in Calgary. The Flames have only 3 teams in the same time. In the east you are playing a majority of your road games in the same time zone.
Also interesting why you are so strong on Tavares not wanting to play in his home town. Where he grew up and played his 5 years of junior hockey.
Toronto is not a rebuilding team.
