Why are hockey players more loyal to their franchises than basketball players?

It seems like the number of players that spend their whole career with one team, or even what I would call "virtually their whole career" (think like Patrick Marleau) with one franchise is substantially higher in hockey than basketball. I wonder to what extent shorter contracts play a role in...

I’m in Nashville, so I went to the Preds game tonight. I’m shocked at how much their tickets cost. The only place I’ve paid more, so far this season is Toronto. I wouldn’t expect Nashville to support hockey like that.

Bo Horvat has 9 points in 18 games with the Isles. A rare W for the Canucks. :lolbron:

They really paid him expecting to keep up his fluke pace to start the season with Vancouver.

A lot of good competition for the award between Fantilli and Cooley & Snuggerud at Minnesota. All of them would have been deserving.
