Patrick Verified Member Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Besides housing, cost of living for these guys is a complete non issue. The cost of eggs and gas don't really matter at those incomes! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCheatachu Verified Member Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Yeah, but Minnesota doesnt have tax on clothes. This fly outfit would have cost 6% more purchased in Florida than Minnesota... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnt Toast Verified Member Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago The reason the NHL isn’t addressing the issue (which is significant) is money. If you level the cap to account for discrepancies Florida would be paying out less overall cap which the players association wouldn’t allow. If you give the tax states a higher cap those owners would be paying out more money to their players leading to less profit for the owners. That being said Florida won the cup for a lot of legitimate reasons, I don’t think the cap bump was the major factor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
