Yea, those are the only two that make sense outside of Long Island.

I’m thinking Dallas or Tampa, just based on the take home pay, and Team depth. Plus the anonymity of living in those cities

I'm picking Dallas. Or the Isles. He leaves for the big D or stays.

As a bonus, it's believed Seguin will be the odd man out..should we get Seguin to complete the ultimate bird flip to T.O

Yup my money is still on SJ. Whether or not that finally pushes them deeper into the playoffs I'm not certain still.

Sportsnet Twitter just deleted a Tweet that said "John Tavares has reportedly narrowed his list down to two teams: Toronto and San Jose."

Hmmmm.

I certainly don't agree with the education part.

In my view, the greatest financial gift that a parent can give to a child is funding their private school costs.

As long as they don't win the SC, they are just being teased.

Seriously, f*** the Sharks if they end up getting him. So sick of that team being in the playoffs every damn year.

I don’t put any stock into the rumoured shortlist, especially since SN deleted the tweet. But NYI still remains Tavares’s best option, and it is best for everyone if he signs his extension.

Its weird the distaste for SJ. each to their own. But they're the least bothersome of the California teams. Anaheim will always be public enemy #1. Then the Kings because I've grow to dislike Doughty a fair bit. And I feel we beat the Sharks are fair bit/play them really well.

There's nobody on the Sharks that I truly despise, so I guess I don't really hate them. I'm just sick of them constantly winning, and it annoys me that they're always a top free agent destination. I'll admit it's jealousy more than anything.

Now Anaheim on the other hand: I f'n HATE that team with a passion. If those dirtbags never win anything again for the rest of my life, I'll die a happy man. Same with the Oilers.

And yea, Doughty is a little b**ch. Love how Tkachuk gets under his skin every time we play them.

Private schools don't provide better educations, they just provide 'better' classmates. They're a socio-economic sorting mechanism.
