He turned down more so he can bloat his stats playing on the PP with McDavid, where he could potentially become a 70 point guy. Then next summer cash in when there is less economic uncertainty.
Barrie betting on himself doesn't make me wrong.
Next time you want to be petty, at least have all the facts.

I'm going to go ahead and say 'he turned down an offer of $6M' is at best a giant smudge on the facts, and at worst an all out lie.
No player is turning down $6M to play for $3.75M.
Do players turn down more money sometimes? Of course. Whether it be for family reasons on where they want to live, or in order to get a no trade clause, or for a particular opportunity.
But he ain't turning down $6M to play for $3.75M. This is Staples dilusio-ganda
