For reasons that I’m still not completely certain, the Stars’ hiring of Marc Crawford means a $600,000 windfall to the Kings organization. I have sought clarification from the Kings’ Jeff Solomon, because I’m not certain how Crawford was still on the Kings’ payroll. Unless my initial information was wrong, Crawford signed a three-year contract in May 2006. I’m told that there were no compensation issues, so that’s not it. Any contract experts out there?
