If I’m not mistaken, Crosby’s initial ask on his current contract was closer to 6M before the PA stepped in and told him to fuck off. The goodest Canadian boy of them all.
He'll never get as much as Matthews. 11M in a city where you're a god and you get to play with Matthews/Tavares. Doesn't sound too bad to me, never mind all the endorsement money you'll get. Also have fun burning one of your best years in Swiss league.
