I also look at this a little deeper than others. It's hypothetical but not really out of the realm of possibility.
Say Crosby, Ovi, Patrick Kane, Towes, Stamkos, Mackinnon and dozens more top top NHL players played in Canada, they would have had nothing careers championship wise.
You look at other elite players like Tavaras, Mathews, Taylor Hall, McDavid, Leon and a lot more and they haven't done anything in Canada.
We literally have Flames fans who think that we still won the Bennett, Chucky trades and dealt with Johnny, Monny and other players well.
Effectively top players, elite players know that if you actually want to win, and winning is important, Canada is actually the worst place to play. Players don't win anything in Canada.
Imagine top NBA players having never won? NFL giants like Tom Brady, Manning, Maholms and others having their careers wasted in some wasteland of football America (because NFL Canada dominates)
It's kinda wild to actually think outside the box and see how bad the situation is in Canada with all the NHL clubs.
