Don't think winning teams get built around max contract players, personally.
They're definitely not built around plucky role players. You need a star player to win, that's the bottom line. It's much easier to fill depth down the line up than find a star franchise winger. This new contract is 16% of the cap, 15% the next two years. The cap keeps going up. Lock down star players, don't nickle and dime them so you can pay Troy Brouwer or Mikeal Frolik.
