Leafs are owned by a pension fund, so if they get McDavid they'll sell him as soon as he gets any good.

It's a teachers pension fund so they'll give him some detentions first.,

No they're not.

They used to own a big chunk of MLSE. As I recall, they sold it recently.

IIRC it's owned by Ted Rogers and Bell Canada which means McDavid can get the latest Iphone at cost, as long as he's willing to overpay for his cell plan.

It’s impossible to live in Toronto without encountering the Rogers name—whether it’s through your cellphone contract, your cable subscription, your Internet provider or the company’s various media holdings. Rogers owns 24 TV stations (among them City, OMNI and Sportsnet), some 50 radio stations (680 News and CHFI), and 50-odd magazines (Maclean’s, Flare, Chatelaine). The Rogers campus is spread out over three buildings at Bloor and Mount Pleasant: 333 and 350 Bloor Street East, and 1 Ted ­Rogers Way, the ornate peaked tower at the bottom of Mount Pleasant that is sometimes referred to as the Rog Mahal. Then there are the many Rogers stores, with their bright red awnings and bold white lettering; the Rogers ­Centre, home to the Rogers-owned Toronto Blue Jays and guarded by a 12-foot-high bronze statue of Ted; the Rogers Cup, the only Canadian stop on the international pro tennis tour; and finally Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, the parent company of the Leafs, Raptors and TFC, of which Rogers owns 37.5 per cent. In short, you can’t swing an old corded telephone in this town without hitting something owned by the Rogers family.

Oilers already kind of own him, Katz loaned Bassin $4.8M, now Mr.Rexall wants his money back and Erie had to file for bankruptsy protection to stop the Oilers from selling the Otter's assets.

Rogers is the Antichrist. ABR ... anyone but Rogers in our lives. They are the textbook example of an "arrogant company".
