criticism from other players and from the media are 2 different things. MTL and TO have media looking for controversies, they create their own poop to talk about around the team, they are very news hungry because of the size of the fanbase. - Symba007
Sucks that they're pussies and can't deal with the spotlight. Could you imagine if they played in a big market? They'd be heroes in a place like Montreal or Toronto. Why does New York have no problems signing? Is it the city itself? Every year they have a good team and then poop the bed.

Easy when you are behind the Yankees, Giants, Mets, Jets and Knicks when it comes to importance.

Players can go anonymous in NYC, not in MTL or TO. Hockey is the not the #1 sport in town and the city is so big, can't compare.

You think that's it? You might be right. Get all the glory of playing in arguably one of the best cities int he world, with none of the pressure of a mad hockey market.

I think the Leafs should trade Schenn, McCarthur and a 2nd for Getzlaf and a 5th.
I don't want to give up on Schenn because blue-chip, top-2 shutdown D with lots of room for offensive upside are invaluable. The fact is, you just have to give up value to get value. - GoneFullRetard

Well it's not like they share the city with the Jays, Raptors and Argos. They love hockey in NYC but it only beats the RedBull in coverage.
