I realize that's about 6 times higher than the highest paid coach ever. But Katz is a bazillionaire, Edmonton is under immense pressure, and are moving into a new building. Katz is desperate for Babcock.
Katz was as big of an Alberta PC booster as there was. I suspect his appetite to spend stupidly in Edmonton has been tempered big time. His buddy Mandel who basically gave him his new arena got taken to the woodshed in this last election.

He's probably closer to being Bill Wirtz spiteful right now than Steinbrenner win at all costs spending.
