And, star cup winners also get endorsement deals. I wonder how much money Crosby made as a result of those two extra cup wins. We'll never know how much total was left on the table or made up for between his contract and the endorsements he did get after the cups compared to what he could have had in salary and endorsements without the cup, but fair to assume winning those extra cups brought some more money in to soften the blow of his sacrifice on salary.
