Lol, Stamkos will likely gonna be a 7M x 3y instead of that......

20M$ instead of 21M$ - he probably gets to keep his domicile in TB - so his taxes remain the same.

If TB doesn't resign him - I'm sure MTL could make an interesting bid for him.

Montreal and Detroit are in my opinion the two front runners for him if he hits the free agency. A dark horse team is Nashville.

- Montreal have St-Louis and Lecavalier in their organisation, and don't forget PK Subban (is childhood & one of his best friend) who can sold to play with a team like MTL.

- Detroit have Yzeman and Lalonde, who both of them haved a great influence with him in Tampa. But if Yzeman decide to firing Lalonde if Detroit miss the playoffs, that's can't help them to sign Stamkos.

Love that line up !

That’s team can turn de corner!
+++ Stamkos two years is perfect
Armia, Dvo,RHP would be replace for 900000$ young guys like Xhakaj, Tuch, Beck, Kapanen the years their contract expire

The only thing that would bring Stam to MTL is st louis. He's been a habs killer his whole career. I dont see him going from sunny no tax winning all the time in tampa to rebuilding slushy snow tax mecha in montreal. + Hes a toronto boy. Pipe dream at best, hes also 37

And Vinny Lecavalier working in the org.

His tax residence will likely remain in Florida but 42/365th of his revenu will be taxed under Quebec %. He won't be domiciled in Quebec.

Maybe he wants to experience the passion of playing for MTL, where a regular saturday night win is celebrated harder than all of Tampa's cup combined.

Ithink you're dreaming but ok
