But the reason he is getting that money is because of inflation. Are all teams not allowed to pay more than Crosby makes until his contract is up in 12 years? Hell Malkin will be making $9.5 million starting next season.
If Sven becomes 90% of the player that Kessel is by the time he is 27 he will be getting way more than $8 million per.
