Talarico: On election night, as I was delivering my victory speech, I noticed a woman up front. The lights were bright, so I couldn’t see her face, but I was struck by her attention, how closely she was listening, how much this moment meant to her.
As I finished speaking, I looked down again, and she had made her way to the front of the stage. I bent down to shake her hand, and I realized who she was.
She looked me in the eyes, and she said, “I’m so glad you have my father’s job.”

This "being American and playing in Canada is hard" narrative is one of the most bizarre things that has come out of the NHL in the last little while. Doesn't seem to impact the around 50 other Americans that currently play for Canadian teams.
