Why do teams think the players care if the Mayor of a city is there?

These are multi multi million dollar deals, I doubt they're impressed by some mayor.

Why is the CEO of Canadian Tire there? Endorsement deals?

So many threads for a guy who's going to re-sign with the team he's currently with.

I just can't wait be inundated with terrible hockey-themed Canadian Tire commercials. Toronto gets Stamkos, and the rest of Canada has to pay for it.

I wonder if the Mayor is planning to give Stamkos the keys to the city

$8.5M in Tampa is = $10.5M in Toronto (due to taxes). My guess is that he makes up those $2M+ with a C-Tire endorsement deal (Plus others) that he cannot get in Florida. Makes sense, right?

...Still hope he squeezes MLSE for $10M per year.

Well.. Stamkos is a SportChek sponsored athlete, so that kind of sort of explains him meeting with Michael Medline.

I'm smelling some cap circumvention going on.

Offering an endorsement contingent on signing with a team should be punishable by the CBA, non?
