Completely off-topic, but can big-market teams (Toronto, NYR) do stuff off-book to entice players? Like, we'll only pay you 10 million but we'll buy your house and pay your property taxes?

The big market teams dont have to pay off the books. They can just make introductions to all the big corporate company's in the city. They in turn will offer sponsorship contracts. Johnny T prob does high end car commercials and all sorts of stuff in Toronto.
