When comparing the two players we must remember that Kadri makes just less than 7 million per season than Crosby. Kadri currently has 10 less points than Crosby; however, he makes 7million less than Crosby, so:
1720000/80000 = 21.5
Thus, is scoring a point every, which is only averaging $80,000 in cap space per.
8700000/280645 = 31
Thus, Crosby is average a point for every 280,645 in cap space; thus, Kadri is saving 200k in cap per point.
Now, i'm not suggesting kadri is going to have the NHL impact that Crosby does, but his overall production can't be ignored. His age (younger), size (bigger), and genetic make-up (has baby jesus blood) suggest that he has all the tools to be an elite player in the NHL.
