Calgary can't afford that

If Larkin won't sign in his hometown for 8x8 why would he sign elsewhere for basically the same money and one less year?

Yeah right. A Michigan guy Larkin is going to leave his family for the same money Yzerman wil give him. And lose more money paying Canadian and Ontario taxes. 🤭

larkin upgrade over Norris?

Larkin turned down 8 x $8,000,000 = $64,000,000
So he's not taking less from Ottawa 7 x $8,500,000 = $59,500,000 And there's no way he'd sign with Ottawa It waould cost 7 x $10,150,000 to make similar to 8 x $9,000,000 from Detroit. Larkin wants the 8th year and he's not getting that in free agency.

And he's not signing with Ottawa when he's nearing a deal with Detroit.

Plus the housing market in Ottawa is top 5 for the worst markets on the continent.
He probably would see more more on a 6m contract here than a 10m contract in Ottawa.

After these past 2 nights i can’t imagine larkin would want to come to ottawa. Also not enough money

Na Larkin wants to play with his best friend Tkachuk and really enjoys beavertails on the canal on his visits to Ottawa

Gotta think Larkin gets better jut as good offers, in not the Wings, Hawks, maybe the Bruins or Canes.

LOL On what planet would Larkin sign with the Hawks? Boston doesn't have the financial means to sign Larkin. And Larkin wants to remain close to home so that leaves Carolina out as well.

Yeah sure he does man, Unless you've $10,000,000 to offer him seeing you can only do 7 years instead of 8 years like Detroit. Yeah good luck with that.

Exactly Ontario taxes are what? like 30%-33% Yeah good luck thinking that he'd ever play in Ontario.
