I get the idea of pushing the cap, but at the same time more players would make more money if he took less (think Crosby and his 8.7). Also, when a guy's made over 100 mil in a career so far, how much more could he possibly need for 'security'?
Also, if he was to take a lower hit, the more the cap increases the more competitive team we could put around him. Or we could give 4-5 million dollar deals to 4th liners......
|
Crosby continuing to just take $8.7M a year instead of pushing past $10M is actually one of the biggest things he has done to make me respect him more.
|
Just to add perspective to Crosby's 2nd big deal. Crosby did get to sign a 12 year deal, which isn't possible now.
Also, Crosby signed for 13.53% of the cap. The equivalent of that for 26/27 would be a 14.07M x 12 year deal which would be, by cap hit, the richest deal ever right now, just ahead of Drai.
Crosby kinda took a bit of a discount, but it was still a massive deal, with the benefit of adding years when I'm sure both partiest agreed his play would be falling off.
