Had Ovechkin had a bonus clause for 50 goals, he would have been paid the money.
It's not like he is going to be given 6 extra career goals to asterisk his chase of Gretzky's record.
The application here is purely on money and other assets associated with the performance of the players. With most teams having completed 82 to 85% of the season prorated those totals to 100% is more likely than say had they only completed 50%.
