Why should superstars take less?

Exactly. Aren't taxes in Quebec super high anyways? So the 7 to 9 mill makes a big difference.
Why should he leave 2 mill on the table? 9 of 69 is 13% of the cap. That # will likely get even lower as the cap rises. If a GM can't put a team together with the other 87% then find an new GM.
A shot at the cup is irrelevant cuz only 1 teams wins the cup so other superstars on 29 teams should be leaving money on the table thinking "oh we have a shot so I should leave money for some other guy?" Not a chance.
Therefore 9 > 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 + chance of winning the cup.
