I don't know, I just played around with the tax tab on that site and for a guy making $10m a year (like Eichel) its over $1m a year to play in a few US places as compared to Calgary. It's easy to say "well you have $10m, so who cares!", but you know who actually cares? The guy paying an extra million in taxes.
It's a factor for sure, and I have no idea how people could think it's not.
