Crosby doesnt get 12 mil his first 3 years if he doesnt get 3 mil his last 3 years...holy fuck. he might get closer to what Toews makes...and would be well worth it...especially compared to Markus Kruger Toews. You might want to check your facts. Under the new rules, both 88 and 19's contracts pay them 14 million a season in the first 3 years. Crosby's deal would have been even more front-loaded than the 12 million he got.

And it was signed under different rules -- which conveniently were changed AFTER doing so.
If you can't see the league has had an agenda with him since the day he put on skates, I can't help you.
There were 4 players on the Pens more deserving for the CS in BOTH years and yet Crosby got credit. By the same math, Tom Brady will win every goddamn MVP regardless of how many TDs his RBs or WRs score. It's a fucking league agenda. Again, at least Tom is straight.

Its a league agenda...of course it is...and its only aboot total points...unless we are discussing TAYES....
Flip
Flop
Yea...the league changed the rules just to benefit sid...AFTER his deal was already signed...makes perfect sense.
Sure...leagues market their stars...but you have to BE an elite player first....derp.
And how did the league get all thr writers to magically vote for sid for CS?
Did the league have an agenda when JT won the CS ...with only 7 goals?
Why did TSN include sid in its top 25 of all time list?

Don't even start with how TSN and Sportsnet do things, it weakens your argument. Those fagits will have McDavid in the top 15 within two years with a realtively zero-based body of work to justify it.
Just sayin'...if anyone wants to talk agendas, look no further than the sports networks.

Or does that narrative not matter when it doesn't slurp on Sid?

You DO realize that most of the writers have zero fucking clue about what or who they are covering, right? The same clowns that vote on all-star MVP with 10 min to go in a tied game vote on the CS. The same reason no talking head on TV can mention how important anyone is to their team without then mentioning "like McDavid, like Crosby". . Toews and Kane's worst enemy is that they're both marketable stars on the same team and neither get any additional credit over the other. Fortunately for Sid, the best player on his team is not one the media loves.

You keep pretending TAYES even belongs in a discussion about elite players....at least one of 88 and 19 comes close to earning that bloated paycheque.
Yes...JT was voted 2 whole spots higher than Crosby as a better captain...wow...that's worth 40 pts per year!....LMFAO...of course you are conveniently quiet that both players are discussed in the same breath when it comes to intangibles....go figure...
see where they each ranked at their positions, according to NHL.com?
And of course....no writers like Pierre LeBrun or Elliotte Friedman know anything about hockey...2 guys who voted for Sid for CS....nice convenient narrative...of course you know better...when you didnt even watch most of the games.
Of course JT 'earned' his CS...but Crosby didnt earn either of his...its all because the league wanted it...but that same league didnt push the Hawks when they won???
Do you realize how stupid that sounds? Arm dancing, at its finest.

Crosby's offensive dominance amounts to 1 extra point every THREE games. Wow. And I sound stupid?
And Friedman was one who didn't understand the 2016 nomination and voted for Kessel.

Kane gets plenty of credit now for actually showing up and earning his contract...but is constsntly dragged down be being anchored to John Madden.
