Keep the politics out of here
Keep the politics out of here
These are hockey related politics. This stuff is important.
It's NHL related. If Harper wanted to get re-elected on a "Leafs will make the playoffs!" bid, we'd be talking about that too (and laughing about it).Keep the politics out of here
Hard to say, without knowing too much about corporate taxation. According to Forbes, they made $96 million in revenue. I'm willing to bet that the government saw a decent chunk of that. 15-16% worth? Probably.:lol
Ok, now how much tax revenue would they lose if this went through?
Or, we could all chip in $2 and buy the Coyotes!NHL-GAF is totally going to save the Sens.

Yeah, I don't see how this makes sense.
Oh yeah, hadn't thought of that. I guess if the team eventually turns a profit, this could be a loss for the government. Again, I really have little to no idea how corporate taxation works in Canada. I just felt like throwing numbers around because throwing numbers around is fun.What? Their operating income was -$3.8 million. The government saw 0% of that money.
This is a good point.That $15M figure is for all of Ontario, probably 3/4 of it comes from Toronto.
I still don't get it, Sens will fold because of some $3-5 million losses yearly?
Thats basically a salary of a jeff finger, it doesnt seem that much seeing how Melnyk kind of gave away a $4M bonus to Healty right before he left.
Aren't they setting franchise records in sellout and revenue this season.

You don't get it. Right now businesses who buy tickets and luxury suites can write 50% off on their taxes.
Without that tax break, they simply won't buy luxury suites and season tickets which are huge sources of revenue for the team.
It'd be more than a few million, probably $8M+ depending on how many bail out.
So you guys are going to draft a goalie with that high 1st rounder?

Then drop the prices. Its not like these guys have huge overhead on luxury suites.
Weird that the Habs game is on CBC tonight.
Good start, Boston and NY winning.
I want that 6th spot in the conference.
Best defensive game for us last game..
Lavys response? Switch the d pairings up.
How is Kassian supposed to be pronounced, btw? Cash-un or Cass-ee-un? Would've guessed the latter, but someone was saying it's actually the former.
Turn the game on.... Already losing. Awesome.
The Great Dane! They need to slow this down
