About the recent talk of American players demanding trades... Isn't it a good thing?

Having good players doesn't make an organization good.

Eh?

I think it's going to change the NHL after the Brady Tkachuk trade because it'll mean US players will want to either play on US contenders but also will try to play in low-tax states.

It might have something to do with the millions of dollars they are offered for playing a game. That may be an incentive to play in Canada.

If this were true for everyone then why would Canadians ever want or have any reason to play and live in America? Shouldn't they all just play for Canadian teams?

Well because Canadians in America have the freedom to do what they like, Americans in Canada much less so. Many rich Canadians generally prefer America too, or at the very least split time.

This is true. In America, I can bang 12 year old girls and become president while in Canada, I'm added to a list.
