Cntrl+F on the article yields one sorry, and it is not an apology.
Is he apologizing? Maybe he is just giving one last attempt to calm the haters down with his side of the story.
He was a UFA and signed where he wanted to sign. People are only upset because of who he signed with.
Well, too ****ing bad, he's a Leaf for basically the rest of his career and that's that.
All people can do now is wish a pox on him, which is what they'll do.
The people who are upset likely don't give a crap that it's the Leafs that he signed with. They knew that was a possibility for a long time. It's more about what Tavares is saying and has said more than anything else but keep on making it about something it really isn't if it helps you feel better.
