You are aware that the majority of income taxes in the United States are federal, yes? The lack of state income tax is a very marginal benefit.

Weather, lifestyle, and winning are significantly bigger factors.

BS.

Same happened when Chicago Bulls dominated. When a team is winning, players want to stay. It wouldn't have been possible 10 years ago. Other reason is that it's fun to live in Florida. People aren't harassing players like they do in Canada. One can have life outside the rink and play golf or go boating.
Brian Burke disagrees

Barkov at 10.00 per
Tkachuk at 9.50 per
Reinhart at 8.625 per
Verhaeghe at 7.00 per

= 35.125 mil

Our 4 key top-6 forwards locked in at reasonable rates for the next 6yrs minimum (including this season). Not to mention Forsling locked in at only 5.75 per for the next 8yrs. Bob’s contract, as well as knight’s, will both expire after next season, at which case we can bring down the overall goalie funds. Should be setup real nice for the longterm

They continue to benefit from the no income tax in Florids. Cant blame them.

That’s not tax, that’s winning and leading by example

Carolina and Boston for years got and have gotten their top players for under market deals because there’s right mentality in the locker room

In Florida it all starts from Barkov
