Who’s on your 5-10 NMC list?

[Yatzhee]

I love the Biffalo listing, although there are less than normal early on in this thread. The Western New York region has hidden gems for family oriented players, it doesn't have the city night life of larger metro areas, but it's definitely got great hidden attributes for young families.

It might be unpopular, but I dislike hot places, and dislike big cities... so a lot of those NHL cities are a bad fit. Although, I'll assume that being an NHL player making > 1M per year, so I while I can't avoid the weather, I can avoid crowds to a degree

1. Arizona
2. Dallas
3. Florida
4. Tampa
5. San Jose
6. Los Angeles
7. Vegas
8. Anaheim
9. (I think I ran out of warm places?) New York Rangers
10. Chicago


Please trade me to one of the canadian cities I would love that

I've been multiple times. Wouldn't be a team I'm lining up to play for, but being close to family/friends and Bar Bill was enough for it not to make my NTC list.

 

[SEALBound]

This. Gonna add Dallas, I don't want to live in Texas, and Boston.

If I'm adding to it:

SJ, ANA, LA, NYR, NYI, BUF, and likely Seattle.

Sorry to hear that, people are awful.

 

[Church Hill]

Seems each year the trend is towards folks not wanting to live in Canada. I mean, there are obviously many good reasons that the US is preferable for those with income, but it's something I think is accelerating still.

 

[Melrose Munch]

Edmonton
Calgary
Winnipeg
Ottawa


I would play in Vancouver, Montreal, or Toronto, which are international cities with identities.

 

[dukeofjive]

Sorry to hear that, people are awful.

I was so stunned that it scared the shit out of me.

 

[Melrose Munch]

Toronto...culture of losing
California teams(all)...bad state government
New York teams(all)...bad state government
Washington. DC...bad local government, too political
Chicago...bad local government
Boston...the rest of New England refers to MA as massholes...for deservedly good reasons.

Awful list

 

[Nicko999]

Definitely the all 7 Canadian teams and the 3 California ones.

If I am rich, then by far the US is a better place to live.
I am gonna assume I would be making at least 1M per year.

 

[Melrose Munch]

I was so stunned that it scared the shit out of me.

So many Canadian players don't realize how lucky they are to grow up in Canada. They way they view the world would definitely change otherwise.

 

[DaPhazz]

The sarcastic tone would appear to indicate there's something classless about simply not wanting to live in Canada or a state that overtaxes the shit out of their citizens while still being a wasteland...

a wasteland....of cities that are every year in the tops of most livable cities in the world

low taxes crackhouse south sure is warmer though

 

[TageGod]

If I'm adding to it:

SJ, ANA, LA, NYR, NYI, BUF, and likely Seattle.

That is a lot of nice locations on the west coast!

 

[J bo Jeans]

And then increased when you pay the Canadian tax rate...

If you have a competent accountant your tax burden can be diminished significantly. US states with low taxes still have an advantage, but much less than is believed on this site.

 

[Kaiden Ghoul]

All the southern team, would love to play for Minnesota if i have to play in the USA or any Canadian city but Tor and Ott

 

[stempniaksen]

2. Winnipeg
3. Calgary

5. Toronto
6. Montreal
