Toronto has the most faceless suits as owners. Ownership is split between 2 monster media companies and surprise, surprise, half the games are put on each media companies network so if you want to watch all of the games you need to have the highest tier cable package.
And we have never once paid the luxury tax (or possible we have once for a tiny amount). This is for a team that can charge $225 face value for 300 level seats in the first round of the playoffs.
So **** those guys.
