We all know the image posted minutes after announcing to leave the New York Islanders and stringing them along for an extra few days, hours and minutes – a pre-prepared tweet with a creativity and candor that simply doesn’t exist within John Tavares.
That tweet was clearly at the behest of his inner circle, and after reading his bumbling and disjointed Players Tribune letter, was clearly written by someone else.
So, as New York Islanders fans, why not welcome him back when the Toronto Maple Leafs travel to New York February 28th with a mocking gesture that will make it as awkward a return as possible?
