I could be wrong but iirc; playoffs tix, merch sold at the team shop and local TV deals are not shared.
I believe merchandise for the home team is not shared and other teams merchandise would be. Which is why the team shops usually only sell memorbilia for the home team.

Drake has a massive partnership(rumoured part ownership) with this online casino also. He places these high value bets for publicity to Stake. I would bet he isn't even using his own money honestly
Even if he did, it's probably barely his haircut and manicure budget for a year. The man is crazy rich.

I know that gambling is still new so it's like crypto and people are happily doing whatever they want. I just wonder how legal it would be to have a part-ownership in an online casino and then pretend to put a bet down so you can drive publicity as well as affect the actual current odds.

Even if it's a partnership, I still wonder how it can be legal to give someone a tonne of money to 'fake gamble' on your site to try to trick consumers. Considering douchy youtube bros were in on doing this way before makes me think it's legally grey to illegal.

You can't tell me a major celeb and all the paid for media stories that blasted this everywhere aren't effecting the actual odds and which teams are bid for. I don't see how it's not tampering.

Probably just circumstantial BS, but you never know.

Who's the projected 10th overall pick in this draft?

Other than maybe Marner I don't see anything else of value on the Leafs, that they would be willing to trade, to get the 10th pick in this draft.

I also can't see the Devils trading for Marner and then likely having to pay him upwards of 12m longterm. That would throw their salary structure completely out of whack going forward. Maybe if they could unload Meier and the remaining 7 years and 8.8m caphit in the deal along with the 10th pick it could work for them but I can't see the Leafs wanting to take that Meier contract on and I don't blame them.
