I think the only bearing it could have on the new contract is that it takes away his bargaining power. Rosenhaus has to know that no team is going to renegotiate and shell out millions more in bonus money for a player that could be looking at significant jail time. If I'm the skins, I gotta say to Sean: "look, we'd love to pay you more, but we can't make that kind of investment until we know how your legal issues shake out." Imagine giving the guy another 7 million, just to have him spend 3 years in jail. Whether we think he'll actually ever see jail time or not, the skins can play that card if ST thinks about renegotiating.

Yeah and on that note, the almighty dollar may be exactly what ends up getting through to Taylor. When he realizes that nobody will want to pay him while he's a legal risk, then just maybe he'll learn to keep his nose clean. I sure hope so.
