Toronto also has an absurdly high cost of living. That's a fact. People want to live there.
Oh wait... It doesn't fit your "warm all the time" framework.

Of course, everyone has their preferences. Personally, I greatly, greatly prefer a cold climate over a hot one and summer's my least favorite season by a huge margin. But I do assume that the majority would prefer tropical climates(Something I definitely am not going to understand).

Wait, not everyone wants the same thing? Who knew?

I know right? It all started from me suggesting that "better weather" isn't a defined fact, nor is Florida necessarily better than any other place that an NHL team plays. Someone took offence to that. I can respect anyone for their choice of climate, city, cost of living, etc. choice. Not everyone values all things the same.

I stated the reasons why Miami has a high cost of living. Toronto has a high cost of living for other reasons.
Not at all. And everyone has things that appeal to them. It still doesn’t change on average that warm climates like Miami are more desirable places to live then places like Ottawa.

So... You're standing by your assertion that "better weather" is an objective, not subjective statement?

I stated generally more desirable. This is a proven thing. I’m happy for you that you feel differently and enjoy where you live.So... You're standing by your assertion that "better weather" is an objective, not subjective statement?
Have you seen the weather lately in Toronto? Been 40 degrees for like the last week... 33 people dead in Quebec due to the heat wave.

No, you asked what's so great about living in the South or having little attention and someone found it funny. Then arguing ensued. Not sure why you feel like you need to walk that back.

Not walking back on anything. I stand by everything I've said this thread. They can find it funny all they like. I've consistently said I won't judge anyone by their choice. I don't think it's fair to suggest any place is superior based on the weather.

Sorry that you want to ignore basic fact that people are constantly moving from cold weather climates to warm weather climates and rarely the other way around. I understand YOUR preference. It doesn’t change what the majority of people prefer.

It's still great for them. They cleared up cap space for future moves or immediate ones.

Electricity is really just organized lightning.
Most populated regions in canada get just as or almost as hot as the sunbelt in the summer.

Can’t believe stuff like this is being discussed after an NHL player just recently commented about something like this.
Clearly players do take the weather into account with where they want to play.

Two players signed extensions in Montreal. So what? What does that have to do with the conversation at all?
I feel like Hoffman is going to have a really good year on that second line. Could see him getting 65-70 points with Huberdeau and Trocheck
How is Hoffman playing? Haven’t watched Florida yet.
I know I would if I was a millionaire NHLer.
If I could migrate to the US and live in either North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Arizona or California I would be gone out of Canada in a second. Sure, I'd likely maintain a residence here, but you'd better believe I would take climate into consideration. Especially as I got older and was coming to the end of my career.

Too early to make a good assessment. Check back in by the end of the month.

He has been getting some chances has a rocket for a shot. Doesn't seem to have good chemistry with line mates yet.
Not anywhere where he should be. And by that I mean in his one timer sweet spot. Our coach apparently loves to have no one time option.

Pretty hard for many Panthers to look good when the team isn’t winning or scoring a whole lot of goals.
