Hilary Duff and her new husband, hockey player Mike Comrie, may be calling Pittsburgh home for the next year. Mike just inked a one year deal with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Proving once again that he’s a truly rare breed – he reportedly took a hefty pay cut to join the team. Last year he made $1.25 million for the season with the Edmonton Oilers, but agreed to only $500,000 in his new contract. His reasoning? Because it would benefit the team. In this day when everyone seems to always be holding out for more money, it’s refreshing to hear a story like this. You gotta love that guy. He’s a keeper!
I’m guessing the two will just commute back and forth for the most part. Congrats to them and their exciting new chapter.

its prob bc he sucks.
uh ya, and his family are billionaires. seriously. 500K is a lot of $ for anyone, but he does not NEED hockey money
Whether or not his family is wealthy has nothing to do with it. Most of the time the rich are even greedier, so it’s cool that he took a cut of over half!
Haha, he’s a true breed? You are a moron, that’s all they paid him, and that’s what he got. $500k for a pro athlete is bum money, he’s got 5 good years left in him.
I am black, you are white.
I am coffee, you are milk.
We will always complement each other.

You may have a try…
Wow Hilary is gorgeous!!!!!!!!
Ohhhh only $500,000!!!!!!! Thats more than I make in 10 years. But i agree you don’t hear storys like this often, but I’m sure that they have PLENTY of money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
Yeah, Comrie is the heir to a $500 mil fortune. He’s got tons more money than Hilary. So the notion that people should be impressed that he took a paycut “for the team” is ridiculous. Free agency started July 1st. He just signed this deal…he took the best offer he could get b/c he’s not in high demand in the NHL and luckily for him also doesn’t need the money.
