Reinhart will stay in FLA.  If they gave him Nylander's new deal he would net the same amount as Tkachuk is in FLA on his deal - in other words, if a high tax team offered him $11.5 mil AAV, he'd net the same in FLA at $9.5mil AAV, basically.

So, any team is gonna have a tough time outbidding FLA when:

1. He already plays there and likes his teammates and has had success

2. He's taking home 5%-13%+ more with no state taxes

3. FLA can offer him 8 years, everyone else only 7

4. The weather is great, lots of golf, beach

They are required to pay state taxes in every state they play in.  I’m not sure about Canada

Don't get me wrong, I like smart too.  It's just that these guys are using it to justify the pick - to me it's a prerequisite to be "smart" in order to get to the level of play in the NHL.  

 Nick Richie?
