I am seeing an unprecedented amount of hate for the Toronto Maple Leafs captain, John Tavares.
You stuck up bunch of selfish losers are lucky to have that 1-2 punch down the middle. I can probably speak for Wild fans, Rangers fans, and pretty much anyone else looking for a good center. Do you know how much I, a flames fan, would love to have Tavares on my team?? his leadership qualities are amazing. The man has dignity, pride in his play, and a stupid amazing work ethic. You for YEARS have had a 3C as your 1C, and now you have 2 Bona-fide 1Cs.
Yet you arrogant leaf fans are throwing one away because he's "Not good enough" "On the decline" "Lazy" "Paid too much".
Yes, hes paid $11,000,000. But you get what you pay for, hes not just a scorer, hes a leader, and makes everyone around him better. Not once has Tavares been at the center of a controversy, not once has he been unhappy where hes played, not once has he complained about his linemates or coaches. Be grateful you leaf fans, that you have a player like John Tavares on your team.
Be thankful that you have an amazing center like Tavares, who makes those around him better, and scores while at it.
Honestly, from an outsider, You guys have something special in Tavares. Cherish him and what he brings to the team.
Respect your captain, leader, and hometown hero.
