Appearing on Sportsnet 590's The Fan during a break at the Gatorade GCamp, Islanders captain John Tavares talked a lot about a subject he's very passionate about: the Toronto Blue Jays, and their recent acquisition of outfielder Melvin Upton from the San Diedo Padres.
Later in the show, host Andrew Walker asked Tavares about a subject the entire city of Toronto is passionate about: assimilating Tavares into the Maple Leafs' gaping, drooling maw when he hits unrestricted free agency in the summer of 2018.
And that's when Tavares dropped the hammer, telling Walker that the reports of his impending divorce from the New York Islanders have been greatly exaggerated.
