    8.7 mil per year is quite the deal, especially when you look at recent signings. I just hope Malkin, Staal, Fleury, WHitney.... are as concerned about putting a winning team together when it's their turn to sign.

    I've heard he's on the cover of Sporting News Hockey Preview for the East Region. Jagr and Overchkin will be the insets. Hopefully, you will be able to get your hands on one.

    No biggie. White Christmas by itself is worth more than 9 mil.

    Say what?

    interesting-ish
    Crosby said that "it was important to do what was right for everyone," but allowed that he had gotten at least one whimsical concession in the talks: A deal that translates to an annual salary-cap hit of $8.7 million.
    Those digits are no coincidence. Not for a guy born on 8/7/87, who wears No. 87.

    "I was right around that ballpark, so I said I might as well go 8.7," Crosby said. "That's my number, and it's always been that way. It's always been good to me, so, hopefully, maybe it will bring a little luck."
