Here's how the conversation went: I think you're right on the first half of the conversation but the second half went as follow starting at the 11th line

Crosby: "Hey GMJR, do you have a minute?"
Rutherford: "Sure Sid, what's up?"
Crosby: "Hey, my boy JMFJ needs a new contract, I'd like you to sign him."
Rutherford: "I don't know Sid, he's been looking pretty bad out there lately. The Jackets have been using him as a bottom pairing defenseman."
Crosby: "He just needs a change of scenery. No one likes living in Columbus."
Rutherford: "Alright Sid, sure thing. I'll offer him a league minimum contract and give him a shot."
Crosby: "Yea about that, you saw that whole deal with his parents and the bankruptcy situation. He needs a bigger contract than that."
Rutherford: "How much we talking?"
Crosby: "$3¼ million should do it."

Rutherford: " OK Sid, you're the boss. I'll give him more that minimum, but why bother, he's just going to blow it anyway
Crosby: "Look here GMJR, I took a big discount several years ago signing my extension so that the club could go out and sign some quality players so that we could win some Cups, and we did. I don't ask for much, but I'm asking you for this. Get it done."
Rutherford: "Ok Sid, you're the boss."

Two weeks later

Crosby: Look GMJR what are doing wasting our cap money by signing JJ to such a ridiculously high contract?
Rutherford: Sid, you're the boss. I just did what you said. I signed for 3.25m per year for 5 years
Crosby: You idiot. I meant 3,25m total. That's 641,000 per year.
