Run around all you want but the deal was the same for both teams.
Whatever.
the deal was structured specifically to screw Detroit if they matched.
The New York Times said:The Rangers structured their offer to make it difficult for Colorado to match.
Unless the definition of "screw" is specifically introducing a contract clause that pays a player differently for one team than it does for another, and specifically does not cover over-paying a star player by four times his value in one year because the other team doesn't have the money, subsequently contributing to elevated salaries and a lockout, I'm going to say that it was structured to screw the Avalanche.
