I get that $13m is more than $9m. But other things matter too. I'd rather have $72m and a cup and play 8 years of competitive hockey than have $104m and play 8 years of middling hockey and retire with no cup.
To each their own.

Would you rather have $72 m and no cup, or $104 m and no cup? I don't think that Gaudreau is unaware of the challenges of cap constraints to winning, but I also don't think he would ever consider leaving +$30 m on the table under any circumstances.
