Twitter jokes Leafs are stalking Steven Stamkos in Montreal

In Montreal to face the Canadiens on Tuesday, Tampa Bay Lightning captain Steven Stamkos took to Twitter to share a photo of something that might be disturbing his pregame routine.

While some blamed the city of Montreal for creeping out the 26-year-old, many pointed to another Canadian city - whose NHL team just happened to clear some cap space recently - as the source of the disturbance.
