  • John Taveras will first buy a Maple Tree orchard so he can start his own syrup company.

    Then he shall buy the New York Archipelago's and move them to London thus allowing his fan base to stay with him.

    His third purchase would be that of Sidney Crosby's shadow so he could shine in a different, more Canadian market.
