It's weird. Like if you are a US citizen with a primary residence in the country, but work outside of the states like 80% of bonus salary is not taxed

really eh? huh... wasn't aware taxes could vary that much among states. and I think Alberta has the lowest taxes in Canada?

On Jake Allen's Contract, he'd take home $128,000 more in Alberta than he does in Montreal, but only $50k more in LA, or $100k more in Minnesota.

Obviously Quebec has the highest income tax rate in the NHL, but the difference between Quebec and Ontario on a $2 million contract is only about $6500.

careful what you wish for or he'll move you to florida or alabama or some poop. dude loves to put teams in the south.

He can’t touch MTL

Primary residence doesn't matter...it's the jurisdiction where it's earned

this would also make a lot of sense lol

- BINGO!

so basically no difference at all (unless the player is so (frank)ing cheap he'll actually consider this, in which case I wouldn't want him on my team).

also that is (frank)ing insane, although Avery doesn't seem like the most credible source for anything.

Jake Allen's $2 million contract pays him about $850k after taxes.

That doesn't include league fees.

he's at 2.9M, but I guess the point is he's paying a (frank) ton of money in taxes... holy.

I wonder how teams will consider the picks' value this year, I have a feeling they might be worth less

i'd like to see him drink a glass of red wine with that beady-eyed head bouncing around like that. he must have to wear a poncho to eat and drink.

I neither like no dislike Gary. I understand his job and the role it plays and also understand that he's very good at his job. I honestly think most people who hate Gary do so because they don't fully understand what his actual job is and who he is responsible to. Gary's bosses LOVE Gary
