I have Carolina over Dallas in my bracket. Guentel brings the cup to Pittsburgh for his day and rubs it in a little.
Teams I am cheering for? None really, thought seeing a Canadian team .are a push would be nice.

Chuck out. Everyone else's picks still in play.

Most people still have Dallas or Florida in play. You mean that you're the only one that has a team from each bracket in play still. *slow clap*...well done. ;-)

That is why I said picks. You "sound" jealous Daniel, especially considering how quickly you responded. Well done.

So now that the Panthers have won, what do you guys think of a team in a low tax state who gets revenue sharing winning the Cup? I presume that is probably true for Vegas and Tampa as well.
Canadian teams are high tax, net contributors to revenue sharing and haven't won in 30 years.

I am not sure how the revenue sharing thing works, but I do know that there is less money involved than you might think. I have heard that Arizona's share was on the order of 5 million bucks, which seems like peanuts when running an NHL team.

They may already have other advantages like weather, travel and taxes that aren't accounted for in the revenue sharing. |

That is valid for sure. It is definitely tougher to recruit players to places like Edmonton and Winnipeg. Taxes are one thing, but the living environment is also a factor you would think.
