That's helpful to know, thanks. I've decided to go with the YYZ connection. A 2 1/2 YYZ layover seems much safer than a 1 hr DEN connection. I figure even if my first leg is delayed 1 hr, I should be fine at YYZ doing immigration/baggage in 1 1/2 hrs, while DEN would fail. Also, if my connection was cancelled, there's more backup Star Alliance flights going YYZ-EWR/LGA/JFK that can get me there in time.
